I just want to smooth out the middle a little more. It's such a fun little piece to play!
One interesting thing I've found -- taking video when I play replicates, to a certain extent, what happens when I try to play in front of people. (though nowhere near as bad! In front of actual people I sometimes forget EVERYTHING) Normally, when I do a video, I just play until I forget the camera's there, so a BUNCH of times in a row. This time, in hopes of sort of dealing with nerves a little, I only shot it twice and just went with the better of the two.
Anyway, you'll notice there are some little flubs and it's definitely not perfect.... at one point, I even mutter something to myself. LOL! So enjoy my "messy" video. I'm trying to be more okay with making public mistakes. ;)
Soooo yeah.... since I jumped the gun on this piece, I also just started Bach's Two Part Invention #13 as a second piece for this month. I'm knee deep in the very slow, beginning stages of that while I wrap up this one. I love the process though! There is something so satisfying about stumbling through a piece of music and then bit by bit, having it feel completely comfortable on your fingers.
March is going to be crazy busy month at our house, so I'm picking something super simple that won't take a ton of time to learn, so a fun challenge for this month is good! :)
