Another of Criserl's YouTube video hit a thousand views!

I'm really elated to say that another of my YouTube video has been watch a thousand times! Thank you for those who have been watching it:)



I've now moved on for theory, I'm no longer doing Alto and Tenor clefs. I'm now working on Time Signatures which includes things like simple and compound time etc.

Also, I've started using Keek where users get to post 36 secs of video.I was introduced to Keek by one of my fans Sherry.

Here is an excerpt of me playing Mozart Concerto No.23  by ear which means that I do not have the scores.




Don't forget to follow and subscribe to me on Keek! :)
Stay tuned for more YouTube videos.

Tutti Cuore by Emily Bear - played by Viviana

Hi! I finally filmed Tutti Cuore! It's not perfect (or close to it) but it's okay enough... I got the sheet music from soccer8sarah and you can go to http://www.noteflight.com/scores/view/84ab621557ec5a0dc01683e131868932c6111c3e   for the sheets. :)


  I don't know what to learn anymore... Any suggestions? I have months to learn Doctor Gradus ad Parnassum, so I want to learn some other pieces...

Criserl's March Recital

Cood news!

I will have a Recital on the 30th of March. You can find out more about the recital on my website : http://criserlpiano.webs.com/upcoming-events . I'll be performing two pieces :  To a Wild Rose  by Edward Macdowell and Adelita  edited by Nancy.

I'm now working on a contemporary piece - At the sea. I plan to upload this piece in the few months to come.

Back to working on Alto Clefs,
Criserl :)

Pieces that will be recorded at some point...

Hi everyone!! How are you? I've been good, and a little busy lately. :)

Remember how Criserl and I were requested to learn pieces from The Children's Corner? I have decided that I will most likely learn Doctor Gradus as Parnassum. It will challenge me to play quick and give me some more technique, as well as develop  skills. It also seems like a fun piece to play, and a great one to have in my repertoire.

Today I kind of  finished Mozart's Sonata K. 545 Movement 1... What I mean by that is that I know the whole thing (well, the shortened version) but it's not exactly ready to be recorded; I like everything to be perfect, or at least try my best...

There's a certain part (or maybe parts...) in Tutti Cuore that I'm trying to get right... Once I have those down nicely, I will record it.

Waltz Op. 64 No. 2.... I haven't really felt like bothering with it much. Believe me, I'll finish it though. I usually always return to a piece to complete it. :)

I want to re-record some pieces, such as: 23 Free, The Fate of Himmel Street, September Breeze, The Love in Us (for the FINAL time, hahaha). And the pieces I'd like to record that I haven't yet: Tutti Cuore, Indescribable, Ka'iulani. 

I will start uploading a little more often if I can get around to it. :)

Moving Away~

Hello!

I'll no longer be blogging on my old blog but no worries, I'm not going to stop making videos and I'll continue to blog here . I'm now using a free site that allows me to do everything I can do on blogger  but it looks more professional. Here is the link to it :
http://criserlpiano.webs.com/   The site is still under construction but you can go and have a look! :)

Also, I'll not be using my Google+ account anymore but I don't plan to delete it either. I've removed some of the pictures...

Anyway, I hope to see you at my new site!

Love,
Criserl

New upload on YouTube : Criserl




Sorry for the lack of uploads...

This is Connie Talbot's Beautiful World on piano. For those who want to play this, the sheet music can be found here : https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B4-zQkdH4geEMDhlNjUxMjYtN2MzMC00ZjczLTg2YzEtZDZjYTM5Zjk5MTA0/edit?pli=1  . This is not the full song because I can't find the full sheet music uploaded anywhere online... I guess due to copyright issues the entire score is not available free so this is know as Beautiful World Demo. :) Anyway, I hope you will enjoy this one.

Recently, I'm not learning any new pieces but focussing more on theory.  In the upcoming months I may post a few old videos of me when I was younger to make up for the lack of videos.

New Uploads!!! - Viviana

Hey!! I have new uploads finally!! :D

For the name of the original composition, it is called Winter Impromptu, because 1) I couldn't think of a name and 2) I composed the rest of this in winter. I hope you like it though... The technique is a little different from usual, which I'm happy about. I have 2 other compositions I'm working on.

The Mozart Symphony 40 theme: I finished it on Friday and have been perfecting it, therefore I decided to film it today. It's not perfect, but oh well...



I want to wait to upload Tutti Cuore. I need to perfect it more; it's not ready for filming...

I've been working on Mozart's Sonata k545 Mvt. 1. It's a shorter version I found in a songbook. I knew the whole right hand parts of it, but not the entire left hand; the version I am learning now is different from the one I knew before. Let's hope this one works out... :)
