Here is my attempt at the last variation. I worked on it after my morning warm up and it wasn't too bad but when I recorded it later my hands didn't want to move as fast (that is my excuse anyway).
Need more practice still.
Martin can you confirm the start time for the Watch Party tomorrow in Central European Time please - it looks as though PST has been put forward 1 hour for daylight saving. I joined the livestream last night and I was an hour late. Lucky it had changed because it lasted for 3 hours!
I have a hairdresser's appointment for April 14th!!! :-)

Derek great work - thank you very much for uploading
. We thought about bar 164 and 164 - maybe it should be played as one bar and 16th Notes instead of 8th Notes ? Here is the Notation:
Best Regards

Olli Danke Olli - I'll try playing it like that.

Derek well done. Thank you for submitting. It’s understandable that many did not feel like recording or submitting this. We should not forget that Santiago de Murcia was a prolific composer and guitarist of his time and he wrote and played these variations also to impress his contemporaries with his skills. The score may look easy, but the skills it requires to play with ease and make it sound natural as a song demand lots of practice.... you did a really good job on this one....

Derek Yes, you are correct, PST time zone has been put forward 1h (I think this weekend), so yesterday was a little bit confusing (and it seems that our Vime Liveplayer Engine is still a little bit confused).
So, we are starting at 11am PST, which is 7pm CET, which is 6pm GMT (for the UK)!
Such a great job on the campanella, and we can see that smile of relieve in the end when you played through that part!

martin Danke Martin. I thought the time would be 7pm CET (I logged on to the session on MuseScore on Sunday so I discovered that PST had changed). I wanted to mention it in here so that possibly the others would see it if they weren't aware of the change of start time.
Also thank you for your comments on the video the smile of relief was because I did it after about 10 previous takes :-)

Derek great work Derek!
