My Competition Results.

Posted 06-05-2009 at 07:53 AM by The-Real-Link

I went to the Piano Guild yesterday, and I got a score of 39 C's and 2 A's. C's are good and A's are bad. A perfect score is 42 C's and 0 A's, so I got pretty close! I'm pretty happy about it. I was able to play pretty well mistake free. I had a few problems on my Liszt piece, and a couple of small mistakes on my Bach Fugue, but other than that it went pretty well.

This is the first time our music program is starting to get recognized in a more important light (not for having a few bad apples). We have played at some venues...

Lack of Focus

Posted 05-17-2009 at 01:57 PM by Joseph Perkins

Lately I have been having a real problem sitting down and focusing on an arrangement from start to finish. No matter what song it is, I always feel the need to save and exit, then start composing something new. I personally find practicing composing more important right now, but I also feel that I should finish what I started. I have a HUGE list of songs that I was about 1/2 done with.
