Re: Week 4: Final Submissions!
@Miyoung Choi I didn't comment on your last video because I can't bear listening to electronic keyboards - I just get bored. Your technique looks to be flawless.…

@Vidhya Bashyam Very good Vidhya. You did speed up the tempo towards the end, I think, and it flowed better.

Re: Week 4: Final Submissions!
@Alexander Weymann Very good. I enjoyed that. Especially the second half where you relaxed more and brought out the two voices beautifully.

@Juan Carlos Olite Fantastic! I like the way you took your time in the second half, to let the piece breathe. Very dramatic, and poignant at the end.

Thank you Heng-Pin Chen, Sindre, Vidhya, Judy and Michelle. This is a recently discovered autographed Brahms piece, the melody of which he later went on to put into a piano, horn, violin trio.…

Here is what I managed after 3 weeks. The hardest part is the voicing and the unusual chord jumps. Brahms Albumblatt in A minor (youtube.com)

Re: Week 2: Share you progress
I've arrived a week late. I will try and get Brahms' Album Leaf piece up to standard in the time left. It was part of a TB video last year I think. I can't remember who gave the talk.
