Hi. I'm Dave Longo. I've had the privilege of serving as a performer and piano coach for decades. I have always had a special passion for playing as a soloist in a cocktail setting. There’s just something about being able to express yourself freely as you make your own decisions while complimenting an ambiance.
Throughout the years, I've thoroughly enjoyed honing these skills to more creative levels and sharing what I've learned both from personal experience and being exposed to the talented players I've had the good fortune of meeting. I always relished the opportunity to peek over the shoulder of a fellow pianist as he or she revealed a special "nugget" that could potentially enhance my own playing.
Those moments were usually very brief but proved to be the most valuable.
TV TIPS is a growing collection of short videos that is meant to simulate that type of experience. Just browse the topic of your choice, click on a particular lesson, and reap the rewards.
It will be both a pleasure and a privilege to have you join me as you take your piano playing skills to greater heights...
