I'm extending my free download period

Hello! 💟 I was right in the middle of editing my fourth batch of the Parks Collection sheet music and videos when I received news of our partial lockdown (MCO) being extended til the 12th of May.


The whole point of my offering the sheet music of the Parks Collection as a free download for a limited time was to show my support to everyone going through this global crisis wherever you are in the world, and I think we need this kind of creative distraction more than ever. The longer we are in lockdown, the more challenging it can become to be positive and relaxed.


I had announced initially that the free download period is until the end of April but in light of this extension here in Malaysia, I have decided to extend my free download period as well until the end of May. I hope you'll take the chance to collect the pieces as I'm so happy with how they've turned out! In the mean time, please consider chipping into my tip jar at my ko-fi page if you'd like to support my work 😘


I've just uploaded SIX new pieces (because there are 31 in total, I have to make a 6 somewhere😉). In each batch I've released, there is a favourite piece of mine hiding. Can you guess which one?



Stay safe, everyone.

Second batch of scores~ (and quarantine)

Hello! 💟

A new batch of five student pieces from the Parks Collection have been made available on the website today (check out the sheet music section)! I'm so excited about this project because the pieces have been lying dormant for months (they were composed in July 2019).

Please shout out to me if you download the pieces and tag me on social media if you play them! #pianistmisa #createmusiceveryday

The whole process of editing and finalising details, and in some cases, re-writing some sections has been so refreshing. I'm so glad to have this project to focus on, to be honest, as I otherwise feel quite flat with being couped up inside as we go into the third week of the Movement Control Order (MCO).

Here in Malaysia, we're now in the second round of a country-wide MCO for April 1-14 and things are a lot more strict now than during the first two weeks (March 18-31). We are now only allowed to travel within a 10km radius of our home and besides this, only one person is allowed to travel in the car to go and buy essentials. There are also a few districts and some building complexes which have been blocked completely for the time being. 

I've only left the house twice during this whole period. I won't discuss much about the whole coronavirus situation here but I wanted to document some of it as this has been the biggest disruption the world has seen in decades, and certainly in my lifetime or my parents' lifetime. I am grateful for the authorities here who are taking everything so seriously and even though it's disruptive to our lives and has caused loss of income and freedom temporarily, I think it would have been more difficult as a freelancer/studio teacher to shut down and self-isolate if it weren't for these strict measures.

I hope everyone is safe wherever you are in the world 💜

Misa

Parks Collection Sheet Music

Hello!💟




I'm very excited to announce that the first batch of the Parks Collection sheet music is now ready for download! I've been working really hard to get all the details right because I wanted the pieces to be educational as well, so I edited them very carefully to be as detailed as possible.

I hope you'll check them out for your students or for yourself as a bit of music to chillax with!

For a limited time, these downloads are being offered for FREE. Please check back often as I will aim to complete the collection, but I will be offering them for free until we know what's happening in the world with the coronavirus. I hope to spread a bit of positivity💜

Please shout out to me if you download the pieces and tag me on social media if you play them! #pianistmisa #createmusiceveryday

I really hope to hear from some of you so please leave me a piano emoticon if you read this! 👀
