• Info: I've played it better, I've played it worse. This was one of the cleaner performances - one of the wrong notes was only two measures in but it got better after that. This will be a piece I'll carry with me for life. From listening to the recording, it's too flat (not enough dynamic range). I had got the dynamics a little better a while back but that seems to have slipped. The pedalling was OK, but again something I had more under control in places. Oh, and sorry about the squeaky pedal. It sounds dreadful - I didn't realize it was so bad until I heard it back and I don't have time to get someone in to look at it before the February recital.
