I finally made a recording of the piece I'm actually studying! And it is definitely NOT performance ready. But that's okay because moving from "terrible" to "good" is the purpose of this whole thing, right? Anyways...here's the first recording I've made of "libeslied".

I've still got a lot of work to do with it. Right now I still have trouble getting the feel of the song throughout, and trouble with the notes in the middle and end sections. By next week, I hope to make the song less sloppy, and more playful, because right now it just seems to drone on and on and on.

I also made another recording this week of another piece by Rachmaninoff. Here's a less than terrible recording of the "Moment Musical".

Before I embarrass myself terribly on the internet with the the terrible sounds of a piece in progress, I thought it'd be nice to put up something a little less, well...train wreck-ish (still not too great unfortunately. Just wait. I'll put up better stuff eventually; I promise). It's been a LONG time since I played this last though so it's a bit rusty (bit=A LOT), so don't mind the mistakes and page turns!
You know, two weekly videos sounds like a good idea actually! One that's not terrible, of some piece I like, and one of that song that's hard as... "rach" (haha see what I did there? It's funny because the composer's name is Rachmaninoff. (at least my fellow pianists laughed))
Oh, one more thing, just in case you were wondering, the song above is "Reverie" by Debussy.
