Today was the last day of class
-
Our final performance class for the spring. It went well. I played the last of the three op post Nocturnes by Chopin. I've learned a lot in this class and spent most of it outside of my comfort zone, for sure. I'm hoping to record myself playing all three Nocturnes in the not too distant future, either on one of the school grands or maybe my friend's Bosie.
I feel a mix of emotions tonight, from sad that the class is over, to relief that the class is over. LOL. Definitely going to miss it over the summer and hope to have something a bit bigger to work on in the fall.
There are a handful of possibilities at hand. I can probably get Debussy's "Reflets dans l'eau" prepped in time. I'd love to be able to have Chopin's "Polonaise Fantaisie" ready, but that's a long shot for this fall. I could do another Chopin Nocturne; one that he published during his lifetime, or one of his waltzes. I will most probably start the fall with the first Polonaise, which I did play once in class last fall, and then move on to something else. All to look forward to.
In the meantime, it's spring! And then summer!
