i played this for my grade 7 and my examiner fell asleep.

the song itself is not difficult but performing it with the right feeling is takes some time..

I´m trying to play this piece for a concert but it´s very stressful, even though I like it jeje XD

It's the timing with this piece that's really catching me out... as usual :P

[Painkiller307]

I'm playing this at the moment and controlling the pp and ppp is difficult but the result is so beautiful.

@3334nightmare Yes, that is exactly how I felt. You have to play it for a while to really get the perfect emotion out of it.

I'm learning this piece & I thought it was gonna be difficult but it's actually fun!! :]

[SuperAllyson69]

@peggychng That means you played AMAZING-LY!!

@AdamskiLawlerski Don't dread it. I learned this, and I didn't find it that difficult. The musicality is tricky, but the result is amazing.

@asdf1232132123 my version is probably going to sound exactly like this recording, timing and all, cos I have no idea how to grasp it otherwise :P

@Cruxispal

It's actually pretty easy to sight read compared to other contemporaries. But then again, all contemporaries are hard to read, so that doesn't say that much.
