Ursina’s practice diary
Hello,
I am still very new to the Tonebase community. Not sure whether this is how it should be done 😃
I’m working on the following pieces:
Bach - English Suite No 2
Schubert - Impromptu Op 142 No 3
Chopin - Polonaise-Fantaisie

Welcome! Fantastic pieces you are working on!
This is absolutely how it’s done. The diary is your space, so you decide how to use it. Would love to see some posts on these pieces, if you want to share some videos! :)

Thank you very much!

I’ve neglected my practice diary for quite a while. I am now working on a completely different repertoire:
Clara Schumann’s Sonata in g minor (1st and 3rd movements), Beethoven Op 78, Debussy’s Prelude Ondine and a very short Gigue by Mozart, KV 574.
Anyone else working on some of those pieces?

For choosing new repertoire I decided to finally go for two of my dream pieces. Why should I wait longer?!
I will now start to learn Bach’s Partita No 6 and Schubert’s Sonata in A Major, D 959.
Is anyone also working on them or having in their repertoire?As a third - and short piece - I am learning the first Nocturne by Fauré. For me this is the first time that I play something from this French composer. So beautiful! But I need to read some background information as I am not familiar with his style.

Schubert D959 - Beginning of the Allegro: First practice video
From now on, I want to use this practice diary on a regular basis. It is so important to record oneself when practicing. I tend to be hesitant and also lazy with that. Now, that I want to learn Schubert D 959 and Partita 6 by Bach, I need to plan and structure my practice sessions more seriously!

My second big project: Bach Partita No 6. First Practice Video of the beginning of the Toccata. I still need to develop much more freedom in my playing. It should be played in the style of a French Ouvertüre. But it is a start 😀

Last week I had the chance to attend a piano camp here in Switzerland. I used this opportunity to work on the Mozart Rondo that I had chosen for the Mozart challenge. Here is a first recording of the piece.
Maybe not a good idea to make a recording on such a hot summer day. My hands got a bit sweaty towards to end. But it is great way to see which parts of the feedback that I got during the piano camp are already in place and where I have to continue to work on.
