10 days of Improvitaping

Some context:
I just started playing the piano, and I started with Improvitaping. I don't know music theory. I didn't even know which keys correspond to which notes when I started.

Recording from day 1:

Recording from day 10:

No masterpieces (yet), but there has been clear improvement.

Deviations from the instructions:

I used the recording function of my digital piano to record what I played. The recording limit for it is around 10 000 notes. Sometimes I reached the recording capacity much before 30 minutes (2 of them were even less than 14 minutes).
On some days, I did Improvitaping twice.

The audio quality of my phone isn't very good, which is why I decided to record with my piano despite the limitation. While listening to the recordings, I also recorded most of them on my phone. That is how I could share two of the recordings here.

(By the way, it would be nice if audio could be directly uploaded into posts)

Interesting! Would you say (or have you heard anywhere) if this works for singing as well or improving speech?

I'm not aware of anyone using Improvitaping for singing. If it works for instruments, I'd imagine that it works for singing too.

There seems to be very little information available about Improvitaping. If anyone here is willing to try it, I'd be interested in hearing how well it works for others.

Both are from today, the 18th day of Improvitaping. It is the only way I've practiced playing the piano so far. Maybe I'll also try to learn to play some music I like soon.
