WEEK 2: What we've experienced!!!

WELCOME TO THE MAIN THREAD FOR THE SECOND WEEK OF "END OF THE YEAR" PRACTICE CHALLENGE! 

  1. Select Your Piece(s): Choose one or more pieces that you've learned this year. It could be something you've practiced through our live streams, a personal favorite, or a challenging piece you've conquered.
  2. Record Your Performance: Film yourself playing your selected piece(s). Quality doesn't have to be professional – it's all about sharing your progress and passion.
  3. Share Your Journey: Post your video in our community forum under the "End of the Year Challenge" thread. Include a brief write-up about your experience learning the piece – what challenges you faced, how you overcame them, and what this piece means to you. If you don't want to record yourself, show us a video of a piece you plan to take on in the next year!
  4. Engage with Others: Watch, comment, and encourage your fellow community members. Share your feedback, experiences, and celebrate each other's progress.

↓ Happy Sharing! ↓

    I really had hoped this would be in a better place by the end of the year, but here we are January 1st. This is by far the most complicated piece I have ever attempted. I plan on working  on it for a bit longer to polish it up with the goal of playing it in front of people for the end o the month.

      Michelle R Alexander Weymann Gail Starr Vidhya Bashyam Andrea Buckland  Sindre Skarelven  thank you all for your kind words. It’s funny how critical you can be of yourself so it is very uplifting to hear other people found enjoyment in my performance. Really appreciate you taking the time to listen. Great start to the new year :)
