Here I am, blogging again.
Not that there are interesting things to blog about. But here are some of my resolutions for the next 4 years or more.
1. To acheive success in piano playing.
2. To spend more time in music
3. To successfully play a piano concerto, Beethoven's 5th!
I seriously can't be bothered with those recruiting agents with some job offers anymore. Many times they called, but most of time they failed to follow up with the job which they offer me. 3 months to Melbourne, and so I decided to dedicate my time to piano practising. It's really my first time practising up to 5 hours each day (even though Congyu claimed that he practises 12 hours each day). I guess I have a mountain to climb if I ever been able to play like a virtuoso pianist.
So this is what my practise schedule is for the next 3 months on weekdays:
Morning:
Scales, Technical exercises, Arppegios, Liszt Techinical exercise is useful for advanced pianist! Trust me!
Afternoon:
Repertoire(S)
Brahms Rhapsody in B minor etc.
On a side note, I did manage to put together the 1st movement of Beethoven's Waldstein Sonata op. 53. I probably think that I am crazy to perform it in Ms Sylvia's performance class just after just 1 month of learning the piece. Not that it's that bad, but there are some breakdowns here and there but manage to play it to the end. It's a sense of achievement for me, because I have never dreamt that I can put in a performance of Beethoven's Waldstein Sonata 2 years ago and learning the notes in 1 month time. I guess, I wont ever get to play that if I am still a student of Mr Ku. Not that it's a great performance but it's a small step.
I got a long way to go.
I shall now try something simpler and temporary put the Waldstein Sonata a side. ;)
Till next time!
