I would appreciate knowing specific practice techniques. For example, how would one practice slowing down over the upper note in the octave leaps in Campanella? Thanks.

Hi Dominic ! I just watched this interview, and it was so delightful and great. Yuko (and yourself) was such a pleasure to learn from. I look forward to Yukos next appearance on Tonebase! La Campanella is also my favorite from the poll you did on Liszt鈥檚 works.
I was also very excited that you talked about composition in the end of the stream. I鈥檝e been spending a lot of time composing these lasts few months, and I would very much like to share some of it here. Also composition workshops and challenges seems very fun!
Thank you.
Sindre
