J.L. Krebs - Klavierstück in E flat major
on: July 11, 2016, 02:19:36 PM
Hi fellow pianofreaks,


My ABRSM A-list  choice piece is the 'Klavierstück in E flat major' by J.L. Krebs. I'm still working on more dynamics and trying to get it perfectly even but I already went ahead and made a recording.

What do you think of it? What needs more attention?

That's a nice little piece you chose to play in your exam.
Good work! This piece sounds already very good to me. Maybe a little more lightness in the touch would make it sound even better and sylphlike but perhaps it is just the recording. Who cares if there is a little accelerando here and there. I am not a fan of perfect evenness in any music anyway.
Good luck with your exam!

Hé Thanks for listening kawai_cs. The quest for finding the right touch on the keys has been a real struggle for me (and my piano teacher) lately. I just can't seem to get what she means by 'kneading' the keys :/
