  • did u forget a note on 0:20?

  • JOHN MADDEN IS PLEASED

  • I gave to play this piece for a concert at my school. You did it great, but REMEMBER THE DYNAMICS!!! Slow-fast, soft-loud etc. My music teacher told me to double the piece, in other word play it 2 times, but the 2nd time i play it sould have more counts and changes etc. Pretty cool!

  • @cristinasplace

    I would play it at your own speed, slow and accurate is way better than fast and sloppy.

    The description at the top of the song (in Alfred Book) read 'Moderately slow', and since it is

    a blues it should not be played fast. I would trust your own judgment.

  • I'm a little confuesed with the answers, faster? or slower?

  • @hedwig85 Edition to my last note. i just saw the footnote (at bottom of music) suggesting to play eighth notes the way you did synchopated. That is an advanced jazz concept. I am very surprised the authors introduce it at this stage. A beginning student is still learning to play with standard timing. You have already learned beyond this stage (now at level four, I see. Nice job!! ) . I am making this suggestion to beginners.

  • @PianoNoobAlexMan Great job on fluency !! For dynamics, it's written on the music. it begins at forte (loud), then on 2nd line there is descrescendo (gradual decrease) to piano (soft). It stays piano until middle of 3rd line, when there is a crescendo to forte. It then stays at forte thru end. You retard nicely to the fermata (hold). I suggest playing the eighth notes with equal length, not syncopated dotted eighth to eighths. At this stage of learning, it is better to play notes as written :)

  • at the end it should be over and over again
