Week 4 Beethoven Challenge – Recordings Watch Party 🎥🎶
Week 4 is here, and it's time to share!
For this final week of the Beethoven Challenge, your goal is simple:
record your piece and submit it for our community Watch Party.
It doesn’t have to be “finished” or perfect. In fact, it’s more useful if it isn’t. Record where you are right now with your Beethoven and let that be your snapshot of growth from Week 1 to Week 4.
How to participate:
Record your Beethoven selection (phone video is totally fine).
Upload it to Youtube!
Post the link in the Week 4 thread below with:
Piece and movement
One sentence: “The thing I worked on most in this piece was…”
We’ll collect submissions and feature as many as we can in the Watch Party, with live commentary, encouragement, and a chance to hear how everyone has grown over the month.
This week’s challenge:
Don’t wait until you “deserve” to record. Hit record, share your current best, and join us for the Watch Party!!
