Re: Group 2 @Michelle R You can always break down ANY piece into bits that DO work for you. Just try the right hand, for example, really slowly! Or just listen to the videos and follow along.

Re: A Performer's Guide to Bach's Dance Suites (with Magdalena Stern-Baczewska) @Roy James-Pike Please share video of your preparation for your dance test. We know you'll pass with flying colors. I think that Chopin waltz is a good choice because it is very simple and steady.

My favorite activity is chamber music, but I love learning solo repertoire now here at Tonebase.

I'm so excited to meet other pianists from all around the globe.
