Nice work! He is definitely well on the way to being a great player. Starting early has huge benefits and it's wonderful to see young men and women enjoying music. A lifelong skill that will bring him many hours of pleasure. Thanks for posting Willem.

Thanks Tony and Marc..


Marc,,he learned that from You tube lessons by his own,,of course I tryed to explane him something what I know but I am no teacher so I am always afraid to tell him the wrong way,,I think he is goin to take lessons and I would be happy to pay for a few..

Thx Daryl,,I did not showed him TK yet,,It could be 'cos he is trying ''paradise'' by Coldplay and that song is there..After holiday he is goin to highschool for the first time so he could work on Englisch,,I could help him with the language on TK and buy only that lesson 'cos I am no longer there (not time for it and it goes not so well over there,,looks like a dead site!!) but I find it better he he should take a sort of private lesson here or via computer,,we'll see a bout that..

This is great Willem. Starting young is definately the key(no pun intended) Starting young seems to develop their ear quicker/easier and yes a lifetime of musical enjoyment is there to be enjoyed. A nice suprise for you. :)

Nice video Willem... he's right, keyboard is much easier than guitar! Which is why we should be gentle with ourselves as we have chosen the stonier route! great to see you have been able to musically influence your grandson.

Hi Willem,

He seems to be well on his way. It's nice that Youtube has lessons that he is able to learn.

Thanks for posting

That sounds quite nice, Willem's grandson. Impressive. :)
Definitely looking forward to that collab. From the looks of things it isn't too far off.
