Small pieces (for project "baby pieces")
on: April 22, 2011, 08:39:12 PM
edit: Pieces in this thread:
1. Igor Dekleva - Bunda brunda (in this post)
2. John Thompson - The Midget Racer (in post #2)

So this is a fun piece to play!  :P Well except if I play it a few times really fast my fingers start acting weird  ;D  :P
The piece is called Bunda brunda  :P And that's kinda supposed to mean the sound that a bear makes  :) (in my language... in stories) So it's about bears dancing  :)  8) (There's a picture in the book) I don't really know how fast you're supposed to play it but I usually start playing it pretty fast  :P ... so these are pretty fast bears I guess  :D   :)
And the piece is by Igor Dekleva.
So here: the bears dancing!!!  :D  :P  8)

Thanks Wolfi! :) Yes it is a little too short! But it's fun  :P

Well I will now post one other piece. And this one is actually not even a "baby piece" for me!  :) It's almost as difficult as my exam pieces! So I'm still making some mistakes a lot of times or not playing everything exactly the way it should be... but the way I played it in this recording is kinda the best I can do for now (maybe I'll try playing it again after like a year or something)  :P

But this one is really fun too! (and it's longer than the first one)  :)
It's: The Midget Racer by John Thompson.  :P  :)
