Re: Week 4 - Return of the Finisher 🏆
Still working on Lauro Vals numbers 2 and 3. The B section of 3 has a lot of full barres, which have caused me some grief in the past, so I'm being careful not to overdo it.…

@Dale Needles Nice, Dale. I enjoyed that one a lot. Definitely uses a modern language, but it still seems very accessible. A very pretty ending. Sometimes with studies,…

Re: Week 3 - The Empire Strikes Back ⚔️
@Michael Shirk This is really impressive so far. I enjoyed this a lot. I agree with @Andre Bernier that the sound was quite good and the reverb didn't seem excessive to me.

@Jack Stewart That's great, Jack. Really a fun piece, and well-played. I like how Bogdanovic's writing is all over the place. You never know what you're going to get.

@Blaise Laflamme That's really interesting. The photo filter analogy is perfect. That about sums up where I am at the moment, although when deciding on fingerings,…

Re: Week 3 - The Empire Strikes Back ⚔️
@Eric Phillips I really enjoyed that take, Eric. That middle section sounds a lot cleaner, and it's really fun to hear the interplay of the lines. Congrats on this so far.

Re: Week 3 - The Empire Strikes Back ⚔️
@Jack Stewart Thanks for the scores. I might have said it before, but your engraving is fantastic. I have a lot of newer scores that aren't even close to yours in terms of quality.

Re: Week 3 - The Empire Strikes Back ⚔️
@Jack Stewart That's awesome, Jack. Playing all those dissonant dyads (?) so cleanly is impressive. And you really get in and out of the highest positions well. Really impressive.

Re: Week 3 - The Empire Strikes Back ⚔️
Lauro Vals 2, complete, and Vals 3, first half. I think Vals 2 will be something I can get comfortable with, but Vals 3 is more of a beast than I thought.…

Re: Week 2 - Into the Dojo 🥋
@joosje Well-played and such a great piece. I love the edginess of it. Unsettling in a good way, which makes sense considering the subject matter. Good luck!

Re: Week 2 - Into the Dojo 🥋
@David Krupka That makes sense. Learning how to actually approach more challenging music has helped, so I think you might be right about Barrios.

Re: Week 2 - Into the Dojo 🥋
@Eric Phillips Well, to be fair, it would sound a little silly to have all that intensity and then close it with a V-I or an "amen" cadence (or would it?).
