Re: Week 1: Getting down to Business

Re: Week 1: Getting down to Business

Re: Week 1: Getting down to Business
@Priya Viseskul Wow, this piece is not easy. The last part is extremely complicated to get the melody out and the left hand in tempo. Have fun to play. 🙋♀️

Re: Week 1: Getting down to Business
@Elizabeth I am not really a Mozart fan, but this Sonata is great and not easy at all. I habe played it last year and the third movement is special. Can’t wait to hear it. Have a nice weekend.

Re: What piece of music never fails to make you smile or feel uplifted, and why?
