A mild epiphany about my learning patterns; summer begins; horrible crash-through renditions of 10/1 and 10/2.
A mild epiphany about my learning patterns; summer begins; horrible crash-through renditions of 10/1 and 10/2.
A bittersweet, rainy day; the first nouvelle etude, simplified; practicing (and wondering about a note in) 25/10; a new way to think about listening, courtesy of Madeline Bruser.
A report on a performance of six of the etudes from Op. 10, with a little bit of coughing.
Some of Op. 10 heads towards concert-ready, or at least concert; some spots to fix in 10/4, 10/5, 10/8, 10/9, and 10/10, with a little bit of theory geekery in the latter.
A brief encounter with an out-of-tune Erard piano (and another piano). Warning: questionable sound quality! horrible intonation!
The first full episode of 2013! Realizations about 10/10 and (my playing of) 10/8. A New Year’s resolution, an explanation of those improvs, and the ten minutes of my practice that aren’t actually “practicing”.
Many thanks to those of you who wrote reviews! While I didn’t get as many as I’d hoped for, I’m really touched by some of your comments. The podcast will return occasionally, with sporadic episodes in 2013. Meanwhile, have a terrific holiday season!
Here’s a link to what I spent all week on:
and here’s the sound file in case you’re not near video.
cheers!
