Haydn: Sonata in G Major Hob. XVI: 39 First Movement
on: August 16, 2011, 10:18:18 PM
Once again, this is played by my sister.
She doesn't feel like it was her best playing, and there were some mistakes, but she'd like to share it anyway.
Enjoy :)

I liked it very much! Don't mind the mistakes, most people wont... Just a few tips:

When there is a dotted rhythm, do a slight accent on the fastest note. Now it's a bit too much on the beat, all the time. Also, the short note kind of dissappears. It will sound a bit too much from where you sit, but it will sound much better in the audience.

Also, care a bit more about the left hand, when there is some sort of line. There are too few notes to only care about the melody, and the way you play now makes it feel a bit empty.
