Hey, this is my first post. Been playing for 10 months, and taking lessons from a Russian concert pianist in NYC. I decided to record today after feeling like I keep sucking more. The recording quality is not ideal, and the piano sounds shitty with my mic and I'm not please with the recordings at all. Was looking for any comments or suggestions. In the Op.2 No.1 I know I mess up some notes, I was nervous. Bleh!

Yes, the piano sounds shitty. But you don't sound shitty! If you've only played ten months it's very impressive! You play as if the entire Volga has taken possession of your soul...

This piece is all about the voicing. You MUST pay attention to the melodic line. really listen to yourself as you play, or else it's just clunky chords..
