Hello and welcome to the WEEK TWO Main Thread for this challenge! 
Alright everyone - this is the thread where we'll all be posting our daily updates.
Make sure you've read the rules before replying (<- click)
Twice a week I hope to be reading your daily updates in this very thread right here!
Here is this week's assignment!
1. Post a video of your practice!
As we have picked our pieces, let's share a "rough draft' of our current status. So that we can look back in 2 weeks and see the progress we have done!
2. Optional for Everyone: Listen to some of Liszt's non-piano music and let us know your favorites!

Progress post- My first practice video of Der Doppelg盲nger- a Liszt piano transcription of a Schubert piano/voice piece. Based on the poem by Heinrich Heine. I have tried to add subtitles for the poem so you can follow along with the story- you have to enable captions (something new I just learned how to do). I heard this in an album full of transcriptions recently so I am happy to have an excuse to learn it now. Looking forward to recording a cleaner version in the final week.
