Musical Journey with Schubert (in progress....so far to go)
Now Op. 90 has become a little bit of an obsession. The Eb Impromptu that I've posted about before as a warmup is now a part time job. I'm trying to get every little nuance and piece of flair. What a wonderful journey it's been. I've learned all but the 1st one (c minor), and it's 1/2 in sight reading mode and 1/2 farther along. The third has been my nemesis for several years. I was determined to learn it after my aunt's passing. My aunt was my first piano teacher and this is one of her favorites. Simone Dinnerstein's recording of it really lit a fire in me to really work on shaping and contrasting. Still far from it, and please excuse some of the hesitations/blatant mistakes.
