@Ariel Elijovich Well I must say, Ariel, this is very beautifully played! It sounds almost like the way a cellist or violist would play it. That said, I do not find playing it more in the open…

@Jack StewartThanks, Jack. I’ll avoid playing this opus in Florida, since that’s where woke went to die. (Maybe I could play Julia Florida there instead. Maybe in July.)

Sor Op 44 No 21 I thought I'd take a break today from the study I have been working on this whole challenge. This is one of my favorites by Sor, and it comes from his Op 44,…

Sor Op 29 No 24 (Mar 13) Here it is again. I don't know if it is any better. It just seems to me like about the same quality, but with the mistakes in different places.
