Recorded this today during my practice.  This will be the opener in my graduate recital, which will take place later this month.

it was good but i am afraid that the tone could have been more delicate and the note at 3:18 about could be held a little longer and fade out into that note a little more.

Unfortunately that note is only a quarter note and I can't rely too much on the pedal to produce a legato sound.

What else will your graduate recite consist of?

I thought you'd never ask!  After the Haydn:

Chopin F-sharp minor Polonaise
Liebermann 4th Nocturne


Rachmaninoff G-sharp minor Prelude
Bortkiewicz Prelude Op. 33/6 and Elegie
Scriabin Fantasy in B Minor

Rachmaninoff G-sharp minor Prelude
Bortkiewicz Prelude Op. 33/6 and Elegie
Scriabin Fantasy in B Minor

You should play the Liebermann before the Chopin and instead of playing that random Rachmaninoff prelude you should do something else by Bortkiewicz (perhaps on of his preludes).

help! although i have performed this piece for a large audience, needless to say, the trills can be daunting. any comments to the approach? bottom line, how do you play consecutive trills in this case? thank you.
