  • I have greatly enjoyed being part in this engaged, international community. Thank you all. It really pushed me to bring together a number of concepts I have been trying to absorb from online learning. (This great lesson was the first Scriabin piece I worked on: https://app.tonebase.co/piano/library?tbModal=courseModal&tbModalSlug=nicolas-namoradze-teaches-etude-op-2-no-1-composed-by-scriabin) My "Play 'n' Practice" app tells me I have spent 40.45 hours learning this now over 5 weeks. For me, the recording takes time. You don't want to know how many takes.

    • Jack vreeland you played this absolutely beautifully and I get it with the recording part if my playing is going to fall apart it’s usually as soon as I turn the camera on lol. Great work 🔥👍

      Jack vreeland Ditto what Andrea LeVan said.

      For this Challenge, the Learning was much easier than Recording.

  • Dear All,

    here I am - running late as usual with the recordings! Here are extracts from the 1st and 2nd movements of Beethoven Sonata Op 7 in Eb.

    This is a bit dodgy tempo wise but am still working to improve!

    • Angela Fogg Absolutely gorgeous playing! This is such a great (and long) piece- I imagine it would take much more time than we have for these challenges to complete and record! I hope you can share the whole thing when ready.

    I still have much to work on with my Gershwin Prelude No. 1 and realized last week that I probably should have started with learning Prelude No. 2 first ...
