Update: Criserl :)

I'm now working on the dynamics of two sonatina by Muzio Clementi before I upload them on Youtube. They are Sonatina No. 4 Opus 36  and Sonatina No. 6 Opus 36. Sonatina no.4 is probably the least known of the set, yet beautiful nonetheless. It’s in F major. Sonatina no.6 in the key of D major, it is by far the most difficult of all the set and it’s the only one in the set that does not have a second movement.

Prelude no. 1 in C Major (Bach) and two original compositions

--Prelude no. 1 in C Major by J.S. Bach

--Original Composition: Noche Serena. I wrote this quite a while back, probably does sound different from my style now.

--Original Composition: Souvenirs de l'été, for my Great-Grandma.

The Pianist (the movie)

The Pianist is a really good movie that's during World War II about a pianist named Wladyslaw Szpilman. The movie has a lot of music, and the opening song is Nocturne in C Sharp Minor (which I became excited about when I was watching the movie!). I don't want to say too much about it, since I might spoil something, but it has a very good story, and is actually based on a true story. If you want to watch something that has both classical music and action--watch The Pianist. Directed by Roman Polanski; starring Adrien Brody as Wladyslaw Szpilman.

And by the way, I decided to limit the amount of music I work on (since I never seem to finish anything that way!!). I got a sheet music book yesterday, and am looking forward to working on ONE piece. And then I'm still doing the Tempest Sonata. (Oh, and I'm just about finished with that original composition for my Great-Grandma.)

Au revoir for now,
