This is my first post here, and I apologise that it's not terribly exciting. I am a pianist-turned-organist and am getting to grips with pedalling. It's going well-my biggest problem is footwear. I've tried a number of options including two pairs of dance shoes, and I have thus far avoided Organmasters because of the cost. However, it won't be long before I will have spent more on a few pairs of shoes than the cost of Organmasters!
I'm currently using character shoes. The suede soles are good although I can't feel so much through them. The heel, however, is problematic. It is a narrow Cuban heel and kept jamming between pedals. I could simply try to get used to this-what do you think? The alternative is buying a different pair.
I hope I'm not too much of a novice to be posting on this forum.
