Re: Group 3
@Gary Hamer @Gary Hamer yes, sounds good under control and quite relaxed. I think, if you work on it in groupings you will get also a faster tempo. Hear also your Chopin Impromptu

Wow, what a lot of different instruments. I have a digital Piano - Thomann DP-51 and a No-Name piano. But yesterday I have bought a Grotrian Steinweg - it is a much better instrument.
