Re: Bach is Difficult! A Live Q&A for Curious Pianists
@rebecca LAM If you have written out your fingering for the Prelude, I'd be happy to look at it. Not sure I can help, but I can try.

Re: Week 1: Voicing, Texture in Schumann's Music
Here's my first stab at using MuseScore AND writing out SATB for the 1st 12 measures of "Der Dichter Spricht" (#13 of Kinderszenen). Am I close at all? PS: This was so much fun.…

Re: I feel so frustrated every time I practice a new piece by Bach
@Peter Golemme Natalie lives in Malaysia, so I'm pretty sure they benefit from at least one extra hour per day over there...because ANY time on log into Tonic, Natalie is practicing.

Re: I feel so frustrated every time I practice a new piece by Bach
@Peter Golemme My amazing friend, @Natalie Peh posted the G major in Juan Carlos' Bach Stage last year. Natalie practices 25 hours/day out of 24 so she sounds beautiful!

Re: Week 1: Voicing, Texture in Schumann's Music
Good afternoon, TB Schumann team! I'm going to start with the final piece in the Kinderszenen set, The Poet Speaks. Once I get the feel for this TWI, I'll add a few more movements.

@Kakie Roberts We're all quite excited! It's so much fun to mix vacations and music. Last year we met in DC to attend a concert by Chris O'Riley at the Kennedy Center.

Re: I feel so frustrated every time I practice a new piece by Bach
@rebecca LAM the G major from Book One is the PERFECT 1st P&F! I'd suggest just keep going slowly bit by bit and, eventually, your hands will get the "feel" for the piece.…
