I admire people who can play piano with their eyes closed. It is a difficult task, as the positions on the keys must be dead accurate in order not to miss a note. I believe for one to really master this skill, he must have spiritual connections with the piano, with the keys. Bring the notes beyond the fact that they are just mere notes. Bring every single phrase, every single line, every single note into your heart, into your feelings, into your emotions. Let fingers move on their own, let them move according to your emotions, let them find their positions on their own. And then there will not be any difficulties in playing with your eyes closed.

The beauty about playing with your eyes closed is that you can virtually forget everything you see, because you will see nothing. Let the music govern all your senses, so that you can really understand and enjoy what the music is saying. Every note means something. When they combine, they mean beyond then something that we previously know. And eventually when these reach our senses, they are completely perceived by our senses, and completely translated to a turbulence of emotions. Close your eyes, and listen. Enjoy. Let the music flow in your blood.

Haha, hopefully one day, I can play tempest with my eyes closed, the experience will be extraordinary.
