ABOUT TONEBASE COMMUNITY CONCERTS:
These events are NOT live-streamed OR recorded, but are private zoom meetings where tonebase members can share their hard work and perform for each other!
These concerts can be played LIVE, or if you can't attend, you can submit a recording!
This is a GENEROUS and SUPPORTIVE space.
Performing is one of the best ways to push yourself, and really evaluate the work/progress you have made!
Repertoire is open to any piece!
Memorization is NOT required.
You can play select movements, or even sections of pieces! No need to perform a complete work!
Playing the piano is fun, but sharing your music with others is one of life's great joys. Join in on the fun and cheer each other on!
FOR OPTIMIZING YOUR ZOOM SETTINGS PLEASE SEE THE SHORT VIDEOS BELOW!
Because we use zoom for these concerts, it is important to have the best audio and visual settings available!

I'm in with Tchaikovsky June, op.37a n.6 video!
Ciao!
-
Letizia Perfect Choice!

Dominic Cheli I would love to play the third movement - Choral et variations - from the Piano Sonata Op. 1 by Henri Dutilleux, but it's kind of long - a typical performance lasts 11 minutes. If that's too much, I completely understand and will pick a shorter piece.
-
Alexander Weymann Or, you could just play it REALLY fast!
-
Gail Starr 11 minutes is the duration WHEN you play it really fast!
-
Alexander Weymann Oh my goodness!
-
-
I want to put my name down first and confirm the piece closer to the date - thank you! :)
-
I will tentatively put John Ireland's Menuet from Downland Suite. Hopefully I can get it into shape and decent tempo by then.
-
-
I’d like to sign up with Chopin Ballad nr 3 op 47. Thanks :)
-
Sindre Skarelven it’ll sound so great by then!
-
Alexander Weymann I do hope so!
I’m looking forward to hear your Dutilleux! I heard a “cello concerto” by him a few months ago, Tout un monde lointain, and that’s all I know of him so far! -
Sindre Skarelven I think I have read the title of that piece but I have never heard it. I'll look for it on YouTube! He hasn't written much for the piano, but that sonata is really special.
-
Alexander Weymann It sounds awesome already!
-
-
I would like to play a Mozart Sonata - 12 minutes or so.
-
I would like to play or submit a recording of Beethoven's Opus 110 first movement. Thank you!
-
Judy Kuan oh, wow! Major bucket list item…
-
Alexander Weymann Lol same
I started working on it almost a year ago but abandoned it after hitting a wall on the 3rd movement fugues. Hoping this will be the impetus to revisit the entire sonata. -
Judy Kuan You ROCK! Time to drop your current profession and just go PRO.
-
Judy Kuan I'm scared to even START this one.

Hi I would love another opportunity to perform live for this recital. I am still deciding on the piece and may choose to be ambitious and play Chopin’s Notcurne Op.72 No.1. This piece has been something I’ve been working on fir a while but am still struggling with the 3rd page with that long trill section so it is sort of my “ambition” piece. But I may switch to Mendelssohn’s Venetian Boat Song or the Brahms Intermezzo in A Major Op.118 No.2 which I’m doing for this month’s fresh start challenge.
-
I'm tentatively putting myself down for the Beethoven Sonatina in G major - both movements, hopefully, by then.
-
Signing up to perform Schumann’s Melodie, from the Album for the Young. Already pretty terrified - this cohort at ToneBase is a daunting place for a neophyte
! -
Rashmi Lahiri I’ve said it many times before, and I will keep saying it because it’s true: you won’t find a more supportive, non-judgmental and truly appreciative piano community anywhere. Looking forward to hearing you play!
-
Alexander Weymann
Thank you Alexander! Will refer to this post to remind myself if I start losing my nerve
-
Rashmi Lahiri Alexander is correct! We love any level of playing, any piece, any time.
