I think that you play this piece confidently and very well. I know that people are going to hate me for saying this but i would like there to be a little more dynamic emphasis on some of the passages, for example the sudden changes from forte to piano. However, putting that all aside, a very nice piece that I would give around 25-26 for your grade 8 exam.
Nice! You're sure to pass your testing :D I'm doing Grade 8 testing next June, but I'm using the 08-09 song so I never heard this one before =/ Still, you're awesome x]
I'm learning this piece too! Your interpretation is excellent! Not many people chose this piece though... Most people chose B3 (Mozart). Why do you think that is?
there were some chords which was played too fast, your notes were clear but there were times when you play the wrong notes. The were not much dynamic contrast in the song. Overall, the song was great but there is stil room for improvement.
my gosh i think you play pretty well. you are bound to score high for this piece. i think the expressions and dynamics are there. And you have a really intriguing start and ending. Great work! really worth to be a grade 8der!
A good play. A few things though. This piece is a very dramatic one and I feel you need to capture a little better through better use of dyanmics. Also, try to avoid 'clipping' notes at the ends of phrases. Otherwise, well done. Let us know how you get on in your exam :)
yeah but then u can go on to do diploma and other exams that you can take and u can be a teacher im not sure about that though :S go on tot he abrsm website
im doin this piece! great job! wow u must have bigger fingers than me- i cant reach the Eb and F in the left hand on the third page, for me its a small jump and some major pedal fudging :D And nice glasses.
i think you had too much rubato before the chords in bar 5-6 , and your chords were a bit too short. Some wrong notes in the chords, and dynamic contrast not clear enough. Could use some work! :) hope this helps:):)
some of the notes cannot be heard.. and the tempo ... other than that .. you played well ... i'm learning this peice also .. havent decided to play Clementi or Mozart's .. Good luck for your exam
ugh i feel ur pain! i just did my grade 8 and i sucked on sight readng... but i got a distincltion! yay! (but the first time i did it i failed :( lol)
lol...i jst had my exam like a month ago... i was 2 scared to go bak 2 class... i thought i got a d... but i got a b...lmao...when i read my exam paper everything was like improve this.. too uneven.. and crosses every where....lucky for me!!! i hate gerneral knowledge!! and like when i had my exam i was really nervous...i couldn't move or talk...hehe
It seems like no one went for the Beethoven, Sonata #16, Op. 31 No. 1 first movement. That is on the list. And great piece!! Do the examiners not like Beethoven?
well done! I'm learning this piece for my grade 8. I think you're playing a bit too fast and at some places you get faster. I also think you have to give the piece a bit more character or feeling. But otherwise you've done a good job- there's a lot to think about with this piece.
But before the octave passages in the first two pages - third line from the bottom I think, the 4 heavy chords - I think you have to work on accuracy, it sounded somewhat dissonant to me.
im learning this piece at the moment and you play it very well. its helping me learn it! what did you get on grade 8 out of interest because i cant see how this could be done that much better....
It's really very nice :) I'm taking 8th this year, and I'm playing the same thing. You'll definitely get distinction if your other pieces are like this -.^
I think your playing hears very nice. The recording is really good and your playing has done pretty much everything required to be done. Very steady and confidence.
I've always liked Clementi. Very nice!

pablinchi25 and dctgfr,
Since you can't play the piano even as well as this "retard", what kind of simpleton does that make you two.
I guess I should be nice to the challenged and leave you two alone.
