Spot 15 is still open for the taking! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Today I managed to narrow down a candidate take. I'll target tomorrow for the audio work, and the day after for the video. I'll be working up till the last minute on this one... but what else is new? 🧑‍🎨

All the best to everyone planning on submitting, I wanted to do a beginner piece but I'm like a (macro) Heisenberg particle, as soon as I am observed by anyone (or a camera), my position on the keyboard becomes unpredictable. 😉
I will be sure to be an armchair quarterback and unabashedly comment on all of your work though. 😄

raagamuffin you should submit, mistakes and all! The recitals can be a journal of your piano journey, and everyone will enjoy watching you progress.

Ok, I should have sent you a de Broglie wave whilst making my recording.

WieWaldi

Stage fright - red buttom syndrome. All bullshit terms of musicians without physics background.

This! This is the only sensible explanation!

I appreciate this sentiment, and the encouraging words. I’m only a few months into learning the piano. I hope to participate in the next recital . Hopefully by then I’ll have a bit more experience under my belt.

Hi navindra

I will try and record something tomorrow.

Cheers

navindra

Simonb Looking forward to it!

There's one full day left, everyone! The recital will go live on Saturday at 8 AM Pacific Time-ish.

My audio track is almost done (not great, but it's something)... now I've got to get started on that video. 🐌🐢

Simonb

Hi navindra

Just submitted.

Cheers

navindra

Simonb Woohoo!

Having a bit of a panic attack with my video. This time I thought I'd use an iPhone with Blackmagic Camera to replace my failing Sony Alpha NEX-5R on B-roll duties and it’s been a bit of a learning curve. I'm hoping this will pan out!

ShiroKuro

I'm in!! I stupidly did not take @Nightowl 's advice however many weeks (?) ago and this is the first time I've tried to record my piece. It's rough, but that's ok.

~~It's over 7 minutes long so no on will listen to it anyway!~~

😃

Nightowl

ShiroKuro Don't feel stupid - many humans generally find it much easier to give advice than take it.

I'll admit I don't always listen to long pieces in their entirety from start to finish, especially if they're not to my musical taste. In that case I listen to the beginning, the middle and the end, which gives me a flavour of the piece. So, if you have played the first minute, the fourth minute and the seventh minute well, you needn't worry about me spotting any mistakes in the remaining sections! 😁

ShiroKuro

Nightowl if you have played the first minute, the fourth minute and the seventh minute well

The first minute is definitely the worst! Well, no, the first 3 minutes. Then it gets steadily better (or stays the same) through to the end. 😅

Wait, are you one of the folks who said they don’t like Canon in D? (My memory is rubbish).

My recital piece is Canon in D, but it’s 7 minutes long. So no one who dislikes the Canon should listen to it. 😁

Nightowl

ShiroKuro I don't like it enough to play it, but I don't hate it. You've been playing piano for many years so I'm sure it all sounds great. 🙂

navindra

Well done everyone!

WieWaldi I was just wondering about the recital participation, so thank you! It seems like this PT recital had more participants than the last one, but maybe that’s not right…

Anyway, congrats to all of us, this was a great one! 🙂

As always, thank you @navindra , both for all of your work on this site, and for making these recitals happen! 🙂
