Re: Week 2: Phrasing and Timing
@Sachi - second theme's fluency, voicing, and energy are in good order! I'd suggest 4th finger less often in LH octaves - your hand looks rigid. There should be a greater precision in the dotted…

Re: Week 2: Phrasing and Timing
@Marc M this is a great start, the harmonic outline is clear. Practice the bars where you hesitate in tempo and gradually work your way outward to the rest of the phrase (eg. mm. 34-35).…

@Marc M your voice allocations and comments on texture are lucidly on point. The number system for texture explains Schumann's dynamics and helps shape any plans we have for the subtler nuances.…

Re: Week 1: Voicing, Texture in Schumann's Music
@Sachi Watching your video - great solfegging! I suggest more rhythmic precision on dotted rhythms: the sixteenth should be shorter. You've done the right work in learning each chord and voice.

Re: Week 1: Voicing, Texture in Schumann's Music
@Natalie Peh yes you have split the voices correctly. The first chord is only a 5th: A-E, there's no C-sharp. It was smart of you manage the chords this way.
