Grieg - Opus 43 No. 6 (To Spring)
on: May 15, 2014, 07:50:35 AM
This is the piece I'm playing for the Grieg lyrical recital which I'm participating in.  Any suggestions/constructive criticism would be helpful, it's only going to make it better in the end!!!

1) melody needs more expressively, i.e. dynamic contrast <>, resolved notes quieter
2) repeated notes should be played evenly - adjust the slant of the hand, not the fingers
3) tempo should be more steady
4) B section should be faster and louder.
