Re: How to mark up your score for secure memorization and faster “re-learning!”
@Peter Golemme Hey, when we lived in Boston (a million years ago) I took a year of Saturday adult theory and a 2-piano summer workshop at NEC. Small world! Who was your teacher at NEC?…

@Stephanie Tingley If I can't help, I'll try to find someone who can! My iPad isn't in great shape, so I've actually been printing out paper music from IMSLP.…

@Peter Golemme Oooh, I'd love ANY pointers, because I'm quite the newbie. Haven't had an actual piano teacher in, um, decades so just starting now in September with Jarred Dunn.…

The Henle app DOES let you check out different editors fingerings for lots of pieces. A big timesaver!

Re: How to mark up your score for secure memorization and faster “re-learning!”
What about "nicknaming" different sections so we always have various landmarks to come back to in case of a memory slip during a concert? I used to do that as a kid when I played with youth…

The sound is really low, tough to hear. And there is no link to the Discussion Thread this time??

@Shaw-Jiun Wang Same here, although I haven't really tried to memorize until recently. Until i started Tonebase, I was only playing chamber music with my friends.

Re: Week 3: Seeing the Big Picture
Here's week 3 where I'm trying to play through the entire Etude, bringing out interesting LH harmonies where possible. Still not at the right tempo, but it sounds too rushed when I play faster.…

@Priya Viseskul Thank you for the Paul Barton link. I just love that guy. His re-working of the Goldberg fingerings is a true gem.

Re: Week 2: Status Update and one NEW improvement!
@Priya Viseskul I love it! You do a great job of bringing out the melody above the lush (and potentially heavy) LH.
