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: 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.
