Hi All,
I know i mentioned it in a previous thread but seeings as this is a different Matter, i thought id start a new one and hopefully carry on posting in this thread my exam pieces as i attempt my Gradings..
Anyway, I am not sure which "A" piece to use in my exam and pretty much liked all of them so i am learning to play them all..
I know there was a few mistakes, kids running around bla bla bla Dont forget i started lessons 3 months ago so please forgive me..

Hi Dave, yea i have an old JVC Digital Camera about 8 years old as you can see

installed Pixela software onto PC plugged camera in and just use software to take movies out, then upload them to Youtube.. took about 20 mins to do whole lot

What lovely playing well done.
I played it to my daughter who is totally in love with her piano and she looked worried that you were playing grade 1 one as she thought the choices looked hard.
But the played them so nicely pat on the back.

Thanks
yes it is scary at first like i thought about the grade 2 pieces then grade 3!
Just keep at it and it gets more acomplishable
I have my 3rd grading in March and have learned 5 pieces, Not sure which ones ot play yet but i like top cat study in F & Minuet in G.
I have a vid of my Top n Study but was playting from memory so wasnt using teh exact dynamics and using the pedal.
