February

This month I picked Bach Sinfonia #10, Mozart K. 457 2nd movement (I have already done the 1st and 3rd), Rachmaninoff Prelude in B Major, and Debussy En Bateau. I finally found a Rachmaninoff piece that was pretty easy so I finished it early (yesterday). I am now working on the Prelude in B minor which seems not too hard except for about 1 page that is more challenging. I am usually intimidated by really fast parts and this has a fast part. When I started this year long goal I was mostly hoping that it would help me grow emotionally. I think the faster I go the more out of control I feel so I get a little tight. I'm not sure how to approach this but I will play it as fast as I can and try to stretch my boundaries.
