Journal #3

Today, I recorded my piece with piano accompaniment, and there were so many problems. At first, it was horrible because the piano accompaniment was too fast. So I changed the tempo to -20, and practiced again. Another problem was rhythm and melody between bar 27 to the end. It was embarrassing because the rhythm that I had practiced was totally wrong, and I didn't know what the right melody sounds like. The last problem was the dynamics. I thought I played every accent and dynamic on the piece, but when I heard the recording, I couldn't hear any dynamics. It was really horrible. So I had to practice again, and then I spent hours again to finish my recording.
