Incredible Deals in Paris: the Spoils
on: December 28, 2007, 01:40:52 PM
Visiting La Flute de Pan did not work, because they closed after CHristmas until after I leave Paris.

Nearly next door, though, is "Arioso," the house of great bargains.

Transcriptions:

Edizioni Curci:  Bach-Busoni Chaconne (12 Euros)
Edition Schott: Stravinsky-Agosti Danse infernale, Berceuse et Finale (L'ouiseu de feu) (16 Euros)

Original Works:

Peters Edition Urtext:  Debussy Preludes, Bk 1.
Konemann Music Budapest Urtext:  Schubert Klavierstucke, Impromptus, and Moments Musicals (9Euros- a bargain!)
Konemann Music Budapest Urtext:  Haydn Sonatas, Vol. II (7.5 Euros- another bargain!)
Konemann Music Budapest Urtext:  Brahms Sonatas, opp. 1,2 and 5.  Variations, Opp. 9, 21-1,21-2,24,35, and 18: (7.5 Euros: Incredible! :D)

Cheap Editions:
This Chouden edition had some nice fingerings and looked pretty old. 
Edition Choudens: Chopin Sonata in Bb Minor (1.5 Euros)
Edition Choudens: Schumann Kreisleriana (2.5 Euros)
Edition Choudens: Chopin Scherzos and Fantasy in F Minor (5 Euros)
Edition Choudens: Chopin Ballades (3 Euros)

Total Cost: 79 Euros. 

My parents paid for this, so I was quite pleased :).  Still, though, I need to get a Schumann Fantasiestucke set, and there's always more music that you can get, but this is certainly enough music to stop for now. 

Merry Christmas,

Daniel

When Practice Stagnates – Breaking the Performance Ceiling: Robotic Training for Pianists

“Practice makes perfect” is a common mantra for any pianist, but we all know it’s an oversimplification. While practice often leads to improvement, true perfection is elusive. But according to recent research, a robotic exoskeleton hand could help pianists improve their speed of performing difficult pianistic patterns, by overcoming the well-known “ceiling effect”.
