Re: 🎶 Latin American Music Challenge | Week 4
@Palmer Well done. You have a very nice and sweet tone that fits this music perfectly. Keep up the good work on this and definitely a piece to keep in your repertoire.

Re: 🎶 Latin American Music Challenge | Week 4
@Barney Nicely performed. I really like your use of tone color. I noticed the brace on your left hand. I believe you said it is a thumb injury. How is it effecting your left hand?…

@Jack Stewart Hey Jack, that is sounding really good. The false nails worked fine and thought the tone fit the piece very well. The Stravinsky character of the piece definitely also came through.…

Re: 🎶 Latin American Music Challenge | Week 3
@Andre Bernier Great start with these two wonderful estudios. My suggestion would be to begin integrating some dynamics, maybe some contrasting use of piano and fortismo or dolce and claro timbre.

@matt Very nice, Matt. Reminds me a little of the Pujol piece that you posted last week with its fusion of popular and classical elements. Also, a taste of Cuba comes through as well.…

@Nijwm Bwiswmuthiary Very nicely played. Your sweet tone suits this piece well. Maybe adding a little constrasting tone color would be interesting.
