What's your repertoire?

[ninwa]

Hahaha yeah I played it but I was sooooooooooooooo shit at it

[Markos]

Scarbo??!?!??? Again I'm amazed 

[ninwa]

Don't be, I was terrible at it, really. Scarbo is impossibly difficult esp if you have small hands like me

[Markos]

Anyone who even atempts scarbo is amazing in my books

I'm also adding czenry studies for piano to my repertoire, I've just been playing through a couple of them. Has anyone been working on any good ones to try?

[Markos]

Btw Ninwa, have you tried any other Ravel?

[ninwa]

yep

ondine from gaspard as well, i didn't do le gibet cos my hands are too small
sonatine
the concerto that isn't the left hand one (I forget the key .... lol)

[Markos]

Concert in G???  Odine.... All three movements of the sonatine yeah...

 :idiot2:

you're too good! Jeux D'eau is one of my favourites of ravel, I've tried playing it but I only got a crappy score off the internet that's too hard to read especially since there are way too many random notes

[/0]

On the first page of Jeux D'eau when you have those distorted arpeggios going down to the main melody, I can't seem to find a fingering for them!

[ninwa]

I might have the music for that! I have a whole book of Ravel. I'll go have a look and scan it if I find it =]

Haha I was horrible at the sonatine cos I hated it cos it was hard and sounded weird and I refused to practise anything that I hate

Ondine would have to be my favourite ... it's so beautiful ...

[Markos]

Yeah Odine's my favourite movement.

Yeah those arpeggios in Jeux D'eau are hard to get your fingers around, I end up repeating my thumb a couple of times..

[excal]

You people are all officially crazy. Period.

=p

Yay, after much battling with much mundane and redundant homework I have managed to play fully through Ballade No.1 with only a few technical hitches and little emotional depth. Now I'm going to try Liszt's Rhapsody No.6. I really like the B minor - B flat major (Supertonic minor to Tonic Major, better in second inversion) transitions near the ending, they sound sublime. Does anyone know what they are called or how they are used in theory?

By the Way, if anyone is looking for music by classical composers, check out

www.sheetmusicarchive.net

I worship that site. Daily.

[Markos]

Yeah lol that's where I got Jeux D'eau from. I also use www.sheetmusicfox.com but now for many works it just directs you to sheetmusicarchive if sma already have it

[ninwa]

yep that site is AWESOME. congrats on learning the ballade lol

Liszt is so difficult! but brilliant lol. B min to Bb maj?! weird nope sorry I have no idea what that's called, I've never even heard of it in any piece ...

[Markos]

btw, does anyone sometimes have issues downloading from sheetmusicarchive at all? A lot of the time it tells me my free daily limit is exceeded even though I havent visited the site in weeks...
