Week 1 Progress

Get your seat belts ready, ladies and gentlemen, because this will be a bumpy ride!

A VERY bumpy ride.

So I recorded the piece and everything went okay. I didn't practice before the piece to mimic the actual conditions of playing this at a concert. That was a big mistake.

Oh well.

If you hear slight pauses, that's probably me turning the page since I had no one to turn pages for me.

Also, if you hear weird notes, I probably played them wrong. Be ready for LOTS (and I mean lots) of weird notes!

Here is the playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLvGKb_s3uHgIHnyJkKQt_45AtCbgK_KIH

If you have any feedback or suggestions, please comment!

  1. Ok, I officially refuse to listen to you saying that that is in any way a "bumpy ride". I watched parts of your videos that you uploaded, and... HOLY COW YOU ARE AMAZING!! I used to play piano, and I would have taken weeks to be able to play that at that level.

    Honestly, I don't really understand what you are planning on improving - you're already playing with both hands, most of it seems up to speed, or at least almost, and it seems to already be played extremely well with emotion.

    But, all in all, wow. just wow. wow.

    1. Hi Davis,

      Thanks for the feedback! I can assure you, there is still much more to go to get this piece up to a respectable level. However, it is great to hear from a fellow pianist. Thanks a lot!
