Since it doesn't look like that Piano Shack room gets much action, I was wondering if you guys ever talk about pieces you're working on. I assume if there's one thing we all have in common, it's da piana. I'm working classical stuff lately, and specifically on Mozart K332 and just started Liszt Libestraum 3. The Mozart is good to go except for tempo in the 3rd movement. (it's a bear!) Liebestraum is something I've always wanted to play and am finally going to commit to it but man it's harder than it looks. Bringing out that melody with swapping hands while keeping the arpeggios quiet is tuff. Anyways, that's it ,, I've learned that trying to tackle too many pieces at once is not the most effective way to get them learned. So practice is duller, playing the same stuff all the time, but more practical. |

Liebestraum.... Sigh. Played that when I was taking lessons in my teens. Since coming back to the piano, I have read through it a coupla times - frustrating as hell. The cadezas get me. Liebestraum, the Rach C#-minor prelude and Falla's "Fire Dance" were my show-off pieces when I was a kid. Working on now? 1) Mozart Fantasy in c-minor: full of piss & vinegar. A couple of tricky arpeggios, but fun 2) Started the Beethoven Op. 14 #1 sonata in E. Lovely. 3) Scarlatti Sonata in E-major (K 385?) 4) Beethoven Bagatelle in D Op. 119 #3 |
