Re: Week 4: Harvest Melodies
@Blaise Laflamme Thank you, Blaise. Yeah, scales are something I have been neglecting a bit since I'm weak in that aspect. Thanks for the advice, it's really valuable to me.

Re: Week 4: Harvest Melodies
My third and final submission of this piece. Learning has often been a 'one-step forwards, two-steps' back journey for me. I'm not entirely sure if this version is better.β¦

@Marilyn Blodget Beautifully played, Marilyn. I had played this in the last Brouwer challenge, but not as elegantly as you. It's one of my favourite pieces. Bravo!
