I regularly visit Stack Exchange to help out people with their questions and help maintain the community. Located in Belgium, I am studying Computer Science at the University of Antwerp.

When I think a post can be improved I will try to do so by fixing grammatical or spelling errors, clarifying meaning without changing it, correcting minor mistakes, adding related resources or links. For the less obvious things of those I will leave a note in the edit, click on the date to see this.

I will only edit content in posts once, and let the author or other users be free to choose to rollback; when there are opposing views, we can raise this to meta to let the majority decide which revision of the post they want.

This will be done with respect of the original author and when I'm sure enough that it would only improve the post, if you need to contact me then you can e-mail me at the following address:

Or if you have enough reputation, try to send me a message with @TomWij on the Super User Chat where I am usually when I am online.

Have a nice day! :)

comment How can I stay informed of new art music?
This looks like a niche question, and I would suggest that it be reopened as seen in this question from Jeff.

comment Why do standard modern pianos have 88 keys?
@BlueRaja: Indeed, "Why do standard modern pianos have 88 keys?" is the question I'm answering. The reason for adding the four keys is subjective, as @MatthewRead mentioned indirectly. I bet there is no real fact listed anywhere, but we're all waiting for one to show up...

comment Quickly flip a page of sheet music while playing
Apart from memorization, all other techniques require you to turn the page sooner or later. And this is by far the fastest technique, I would like to add some tips: Loosen the pages by quickly flipping through all pages prior to the performance, just like you would do before inserting paper into your printer. Practice the above technique slowly at first, just try to flip the page by applying a light pressure on top of the paper and moving it to the left while applying less pressure (more fluent motion). Using a small bit of saliva can help too...
