Hello.

On this piece, I think you should slow down and prefer to do something slow with no mistake instead of trying to go too fast with many mistakes. If you can't play without mistake even slower, then you should slow again, and again.
I don't think turkish march is an easy piece. Try other smaller and easier pieces. Browse youtube and forum to find them.

I'm still trying to play this piece properly. The ending is difficult.

After you master that song, try transposing it to C Major.  :P
I might give you an example. Hold on, it's in my phone here somewhere.

Considering the sections are in A minor, C major, A major, and F# minor, saying "Play it in C major" seems pretty useless. How would that help?
