Re: Performance Anxiety
@Steven Bornfeld That's me you're taking about😀 even though I haven't performed to anyone yet. I have this very stern inner critic in my head that messes up my playing when I record myself.

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
@Blaise Laflamme Beautifully played, Blaise. The piece starts out mellow and sweet and then suddenly takes these mysterious turns. You evoked those feelings in me.

Re: Leo Brouwer's Estudios Sencillios!
Brouwer's etude No.6. This is my favourite Brouwer etude. It's so beautiful harmonically and a great exercise for RH arpeggio. Not sure if I did it any justice.…
