Do the appoggiaturas in M. 5, 6, etc, come on the beat or before the beat?

xx help on accompaniment for beethoven op 2 no 1
July 07, 2010, 02:18:45 AM by brunotheiss

Hello, I'm going to play at the municipal theater with a friend. Each one of us will play half a hour and then we'll do some piano four-hands.

I have a semester to work on the pieces I'll play alone, and one of them will for sure be Beethoven Op. 2 no. 1.

Here's the question: is the program below unnefective or something like that?
Anyone here have a much better idea?

--------------------------------------------------
Rachmaninoff - Prelude Op. 3 no. 2 in C Sharp Minor
Beethoven - Sonata Op. 2 no. 1 in F Minor
Chopin - Nocturne Op. 48 in C Minor
--------------------------------------------------

If it's ok, I won't even bother on changing anything, I just wanna know if there's some kind of a big mistake in my choice.

Thank you already  Grin

xx UPDATED: Beethoven Piano Sonata Op. 2 No.1 - I Allegro
June 24, 2009, 09:16:45 PM by aslanov

I was just practicing today and i decided to go ahead and record my progress thus far.
As you may or may not know im at my 1.5 year mark of playing piano. Unfortunately I have been without my teacher for about 2 months now, so i try to solve the problems in my playing on my own, but as im sure you'll hear it wasnt that successful. Anyway, have a listen, and lemme know any problems you hear, and how it is i can go about practicing to reduce those problems. I know there are a lot of wrong notes...when i listen to it, i think the intention i have is...understandable, but the way i play it just doesnt do the intention justice, just yet.

I found this recording from last june.
My final attempt at uploading it, first few times didnt work out.
There are some mistakes, but the idea is there, let me know what you think because im thinking of revisiting this piece with a fresh mind.

xx Beethoven Piano Sonata no. 1- pedal help
January 04, 2009, 03:59:08 AM by aslanov

hey guys, im having trouble figuring out the pedaling for the section after the beginning, the part thats like the descent from the mannheim rocket in the beginning, with the left hand playing some accompaniment. (sorry i dont know any technical terminology for this stuff, i never really studied theory, and i still havent talked to my piano teacher about it) but i thought some of our more learned players can shed some light on this.

thanks

xx Beethoven - op2.1 complete
November 19, 2008, 04:11:39 PM by feddera

Finally! I was able to make a recording of this whole sonata today. I will continue working on it one more month, then I will make the final ultimate recording. I've been working on it on/off since January, and I can't wait to start learning something else. Tongue

I also plan on performing this for my friends and family sometime during christmas, so I will need some advice on how to improve until then. Please comment, it would make me very happy!  Smiley

xx Beethoven - op2no1 mvt4
October 08, 2008, 03:08:10 PM by feddera

Been working on this one on and off for a while. My new teacher told me to put it aside for a couple of months, so I could focus on Beethoven's op10no1 instead. Before I take a break from it, I just had to make a recording of my progress so far.  Tongue

Any comments on how to get it better will be appreciated!

xx Beethoven - Op.2 nº1 - Allegro
October 07, 2008, 11:34:45 PM by migamaral

Hi Everybody,

this is my first post in the audition room. I´m a 25 years old piano student. started when I was 6, up to 10, then stoped for 13 years. For the last two years I´ve been studying with a piano teacher here in Portugal.

Sorry for the mistakes... PLEASE COMMENT

By the way, do you enjoy playing early Beethoven?

xx Beethoven Sonata in F minor
April 22, 2008, 02:10:08 PM by ridr27

In Beethoven's Sonata in F minor Op. 2 No. 1, Allegro:

When a note is already Flat in the Key Signature and one is added to the note:

Would that make it a double flat?

Examples:  Measure 116, added flat to A; Measure 118, added flats to B and D; Measure 120 added flat to B.

I have tried to make sense of this but noting if the preceeding measure had made them natural and thusly it was just *added* as supposed help (which actually usually confuses me....LOL)

Hope all this is clear enough question for an answer.

xx Beethoven op2no1 and a more general question regarding long pieces
February 25, 2008, 03:15:55 AM by feddera

Hi everyone!  Cheesy

So, I plan on getting all 4 movements of Beethovens first sonata ready for perfomance around july/august. I have just spent the past six weeks memorising the first movement, and while it's far from perfect (need better trills and dynamics), five more months should be plenty of time. After reading around this forum, I decided working on all the movements at the same time would be a better idea.

The 4th movement seemed like the hardest one, so I started working on the first 5 bars with the LH, and the ending with my RH. Well, it's been three days, and i can only manage those sections at 160 bpm comfortably, it falls apart around 180, and there is no way I can play that at 208. I have seen suggestions to learn hands seperate at 140% the final speed, which in this case means like, 300 bpm. Is that even possible? My question to those who have learnt this piece (or similiar pieces), is how much time do you need to reach the final speed? Maybe I am impatient after just three days, but I have never played anything this fast and I have no idea what is normal.

I guess I could always learn the entire thing hands together at 160 bpm and increase the speed gradually from there, but according to most here that is the "old fashioned" way to do it? But on the other hand, if I can play those two sections at 208 bpm, the rest of the piece is really just memorising.

And yes, the more general question. This is the longest piece I have worked on, my first Beethoven-sonata and my only multi-movement piece. How much time is "ok" to use on a piece like this? Is 6 months to much, to little or just right? I'm sure it depends on skill-level etc. but some general pointers would be nice  Tongue

Dr. Robert J Keane, pianist

"I was in Poland the past summer to give 2 concerts. At the last minute they requested some Chopin, which I had not brought with me. So, I google-searched for classical downloads and found your site. I was able to print out excellent editions of the pieces I needed within minutes. To find the scores locally would have been inpossible as it was a smaller town, the nearest music store 45 minutes away."

"Piano Street has been a wonderful tool to me as both a pianist and a piano teacher. I can browse the collection for pieces I want to play and/or have my students play. The difficulty rating system that Piano Street uses enables me to search by difficulty level for pieces at my students' various playing levels. It is helpful that many of the scores include an audio clip of the piece being played. I have recommended to my advanced students that they also join Piano Street since getting sheet music from there is a much less expensive alternative to ordering and paying for the music.
