Am I Doing Good?
on: January 11, 2014, 02:50:22 AM
Hey everybody I'm just wondering how I am doing with piano. I started when I was 6 and it will be my 9th year of playing in march. im currently working on k545 (finished 2nd mvmt, very close to 1st, speeding up 3rd) maple leaf rag (done, just looking to clean it up) and pine apple rag (just started) i finished bach inventions 1,2,4,8 and working on 3. i do work on technical books and i would say that k545 is fairly smooth. so what do you think?

Without hearing you play, there's not much we can say... But judging by your years of experience and the repertoire you've chose, I'd bet you're playing pretty well. Kudos for not going crazy at Alkan etudes and waiting for the right time. But that's just my conservative opinion, based on very little. Let us hear you play!
Chopin First Scherzo
Guarnieri Ponteios
Ravel Sonatine
Rachmaninoff Prelude op. 32 no. 10
Schumann Kinderszenen
Debussy Brouillards
Bach, Bach, Bach...
