Re: Group 1
I have chosen op 6 n 1. (it is the only one in my Chopin book - so perhaps it chose me) It is in F sharp minor, an unusual key.

Re: Happy Birthday Grieg! (feat. Watch Party: Lyrical Miniatures)
Hello Dominic. I don't know much about Grieg, so if you can, please start by talking about his piano music in general. And play a piece yourself please. Show us how it should be done.

Re: Group 2
@Heng-Pin Chen Yes I have an F there. I don't always get the notes right so I might not have played it. I don't like to play at an even pace. I think music should allow for tempo changes.
