Today I reached the section where I had previously learned to. There are still some little sections that need some ironing out in the first section of the piece, but overall, it’s even cleaner than the last time I played it, so that’s good news!
The faster sections used to be a fair challenge. Take the following, for example:
my right hand doesn’t move that fast!
The notes that aren’t slurred are, um, pretty fast. The last time I played this, I couldn’t really play them cleanly, but practicing tremolos for the past few days seems to have made bits like this much cleaner.
I’ll keep putting this piece together. Next time, I should be able to learn some new material.
