Schubert D960 clip
on: November 23, 2020, 08:25:00 PM
After a cycling accident that ripped my rotator cuff, I start the long road to pianistic recovery.
I thought I would destroy some Schubert and since i love being insulted I thought I would post the clip here, which is something I have never done and will probably never do again.
As usual, I never complete anything before something else takes my fancy.

Thanks for posting, I enjoyed that, I hope you post more. You play very well and your technique looks good. I, on the other hand, resemble a spavined, groping polar bear in comparison, which is why I stick to posting audio only. Sorry to hear of your accident, rotator cuff injuries are fair bastards and seem to take forever to heal.

Thanks old boy. It was months before I could even raise my hand to the keyboard.
I have now torn both, but they have healed well and my hands feel nice and flexible.
Strangely I sit lower than before.

I'd never make fun of anyway with the determination to get back on the horse and master the piano again.

BRAVO, you bold, beautiful bastard.

Don't know - you can always take a skimpy pic with a crop top and see if it finds its way there.

This is nice to see. I like the general style of phrasing, it's good to hear people being willing to give music space and time appropriately and imo too many performers don't.

Thanks for your feedback my dear fellow. Many play this too fast for my liking.

It is one of the rare occasions I care for Richter lol
