Schubert - Sonata D.664 #13 in A Major II.Andante

I messed up in several places, the most obvious one where I hit an F natural instead of F sharp. I decided just to post what I have, warts and all. This piece still needs work, obviously, but I’ve procrastinated long enough.

I used a zoom H4N recorder with a matched pair of Rode NT5s. I spliced the sound onto my iPhone video using Reaper

My goodness. What a beautiful piece and played so well. Thank you for deciding to just post what you have. I enjoyed listening.

I thought it was lovely. I think those little mistakes you hear because you're so in the weeds of the piece, they're either not heard by your audience or they do not detract from the enjoyment of the listen. Thanks for posting.

Very nicely done!

I like your phrasing.
I like the clean way you let the rest breathe in bar 7.
I like your rubato.
I wouldn't have noticed the F-natural you mention if I weren't familiar with the score. It doesn't sound bad, and Beethoven might have written it that way deliberately.

I listened with headphones, and the recorded sound is very nicely captured.

Lovely!

Thanks everyone for the comments. This was the first time I ever posted a video or recording. Maybe I’ll be more comfortable doing another one.
