Gran Vals

8 Dec

Decided not to do anything new for the remaining of the year. Recently when I revisited Valseana months after playing it, I got a realization that sometimes it is better to learn a piece maybe to 60-70% of what your ears want then move on. Revisit it months later when my understanding deepens and technique improved. 

So gonna revisit this. Gran Vals is the second piece I learn this year. Couldn't get section B and D right to tempo especially the slurs at the high F sharp. 

My solution is to play slowly and softly to achieve a light and playful phrasing.
