Re: Week 3: The final dance of the Soirees!
Hi Guys! This is practice video for sections 1-4 of the Liszt. Dominic and Jeffrey Biegel had really useful pointers on how to fix my octaves, but looks like I need spend more time on them.âŠ

Re: Week 3: The final dance of the Soirees!
@Dominic Cheli I watched Jeffrey Biegel's super video about octaves, and you both had the same suggestion about using the weight of the arm more. I'll keep at it! Fingers crossed.

Great job, Brett! I love how you convey the different âpersonalitiesâ of each section. And I get nervous just playing for my husband, so you are very brave to make a whole video.âŠ

@Ching Lee Goh You are so musical - great job! And I totally agree, we need to memorize this piece because there are too many bumpy parts for us to get right while we are also reading the music.

Hmmm...my video did not seem to want to upload. As you can tell, I'm having a rough time with the octaves, but I'm really enjoying learning the piece.

@Natale Farrell I started working on it too late, and have had time to only do 4 sections so far. Maybe we can play it for Utako next month?

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