I like this music. But I lack knowledge about it. This is a common problem these days. I stayed out of school for almost a year for various reasons. That's why my friend recommended this site to me https://steinway.co.uk/piano/model-k-132/ where I was able to find a suitable piano for myself and easily ordered it. You should try to use it either.
