Week 4: Submit Your Recording for the Chopin Watch Party!

Update!

Our Watch Party has been re-scheduled for this upcoming Monday at 11am PT!

 

It’s sharing time! Drop your recording below so we can cheer you on at the Chopin Watch Party — happening Monday October 20th!

 

 


What to Post

  • A video of your Chopin piece — polished, messy, dramatic, cautious... all versions welcome.

  • Write what you worked on this week — tone, voicing, octaves, courage, not throwing the score across the room, etc... 😄


Deadline

Please post by Tuesday, Oct 15th at 9:00 AM PT so I have time to build a playlist worthy of Chopin and popcorn.

       lovely! I like how you lead voicing in the LH, the "crying" melody in the RH and wonderful dynamics throughout. I think you got the essence of the piece and transformed it straight to us. Thank you!

    I have been working on Chopin's Nocturne Op.37 No 2. It is such a simple sounding, beautifully, lyric, dreamy piece - but so exposed and definitely not simple or easy to play. I think I will be working on this one for a lifetime....which is what playing Chopin is all about!

    Hello  , please take this video for the challenge, I explored new pedal playing and was able to refine some things in my playing in the last days. Thank you!
