Piano recording: jury prep
-
I have a piano jury coming up in about two weeks. This will be the “final exam” for my piano class this semester. Since my biggest challenge now is perfomance anxiety, I’ve been trying to record myself as a way to add some pressure to my practice.
So here’s my recording from yesterday. I kind of fell apart at the end, but it’s otherwise not too bad.

I'm now on the 3rd and final op post Nocturne by Chopin in class: Nocturne No. 21 in C Minor, KK IVb/8.
It's a challenge because it's very repetitive, the first half page is almost all I chord alternating with V7. I can't find the climax of the piece--I'm not even sure there is one! It's almost a meditative piece. In this regard, it's just as hard as any of the others, but in a different way.
