PianoTell Recital #2 Meta Feedback
I’m in! I have been away or very busy for most of October… very little piano… and I still haven’t finished my listening and comments from the last PW themed recital. BUT! I pledge to record something, none of my current pieces are ready but will try something from a couple of months ago!

I haven't been around for a while, and didn't realise that there was to be a November recital until today.
Sadly, I have nothing new that would be suitable, due to using non-piano VSTs, but it is great to see that there are already 10 participants!
I look forward to listening to you all
Currently, there is only 1 piece a duplicate in both forums, the rest is entirely different. Some posted different pieces in both forums and one of them seems to be "recycled" from a previous recital. But I am not sure about this recycling thing, as this piece wasn't finished last time, and we could probably hear a newer version.
Player1 I'm almost at the point where I can make my 1st recording of the piece I'm working on. It's going to be close!
It’s funny, I took a chapter out of your book because last time you had your piece recorded several weeks in advance. I was cutting it fine and worried whether I would have something ready in time. This round it seems we are reversed - I know how you feel 
I tried to record my piece earlier today, it was going really well but then I made a really bad slip near the end
. So frustrating, I know I'll get a good recording eventually though.
Welcome @Cratersmash And yes, I can relate to that too. In fact I posted just the other day how I had recorded a piece and then found out I never pushed the record button... or, as you said. It never fails that if a bad slip happens, it invariably happens in the last few seconds 
Cratersmash Trust me, Cratersmash, you're not alone, we've all been there. It's something we often refer to as Red Button Syndrome.
It's good to see a new member arrive, this forum is fairly new and it is taking time for the membership to grow. Have you been playing piano long?

Nightowl I've been playing for quite a while, 8 or 9 years at this point.
Nice! Will look forward to your recital piece
Cratersmash Oh, then you're way ahead of me, I only began last November. Your username makes an impact - are you keen on astronomy by any chance?

Nightowl Nope, I randomly picked this username for something when I was very young and I've been using it since then. No correlation to anything besides me liking how it sounds.
Yeah, well, I didn't practice yesterday and today I woke up on the wrong side of the bed so I may not play today either.
The t hing is, it's not a difficult piece, I could play my way through it in an hour. I just don't have much motivation (or a good attitude) right now so don't expect much.
Player1 Yeah, I get days like that too - sometimes everything feels like too much of an effort (except eating sugary foods - I can always seem to manage that, somehow!). There's still plenty of time, especially for someone awesome like yourself!
