On the First Day of Christmas, Steemit gave to me...501 followers! Did you know that the "first day of Christmas" starts on Christmas day and goes 12 days afterward?
I did not know that, so thanks Wiki for that info. I did not, however, choose to play The 12 Days of Christmas song. Instead, I made a recording of me playing The First Noel as a way of saying thank you to all who support me.
This is one of my favorite Christmas carols and I love this arrangement by Lorie Line. I have made an animated gif of my fireplace to watch as you listen below!
Info on the Recording
For those interested in how I made this recording, I played it via MIDI into Logic Pro X. I used the software piano TrueKeys American and recorded a couple of takes until I was happy with the results, and added a bit of reverb to make it sound professional. Then exported to Soundcloud and voila! A fairly simple process to get a high-quality recording.
Merry Christmas, Steemit!
