Dear all,
Hope you are well. Here is an excerpt of the Scherzo, the second movement of Sonata number 2, Op. 14 by Prokofiev. There is still a lot of work to do with this piece. Any advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you for listening!

I found it much more challenging than expected to play the Prelude & Gigue back-to-back in a "successful" manner. So I lowered my expectations a bit, and am mostly satisfied with this submission: it is memorized, at a decent tempo, and only a couple of pauses in the Gigue. I decided that I could either remember the notes or be aware of my wrist dropping too much - you'll see that moment! The wrist will take more time and effort to correct. Great challenge experience. As always, thanks for all the support and encouragement from my piano friends.
