　I reviewed Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 24 "Therese" which I plan to burn on my fourth CD.　Thanks to my teacher's lessons, I think it is much better than the one I typed about 5 years ago.　It is in the unusual key of F-sharp major, which has six sharps, but midi...

　I burned my third CD.　This time it is two pieces, "Waldstein" and "Passion". 　These two pieces are also considered masterpieces, and it seems that a new piano, a French Erard, was used for composing them.　The range of the sound was widened and the width of the dynamics was increased, and the pi...

　I burned my second CD.　This time it is Beethoven's "Pathetique", "Moonlight", and "Tempest", which are considered masterpieces.　Under the supervision of my teacher, I reviewed the three pieces that I had previously typed.　The review is a strange thing; at the time, I thought it was fine, but...

　I am reviewing the Beethoven piano sonatas I have been working on to burn them to CD under the guidance of my teacher again.　This time it is No. 14, "Moonlight". 　It's a strange thing, when I re-listen to the piece I uploaded to this blog thinking it was good enough, I find that there are various...

　I have been listening again to the "Piano Sonata No. 8" that I had performed before, in order to burn it to CD. 　First of all, I would like to talk about the fp, which is indicated in the symbolic chord from the beginning of the first movement.

　I've finally finished inputting No. 17 "Tempest", with my musical advisor's comment, "Let's listen to it again in a while".　The composition of the three movements is well calculated, and even so, each of them is full of unique beauty.

　The cabatina was finally finished.　The maestro's playing instructions were quite detailed and it was difficult to balance each string.　Especially, I heard that it is Beethoven's 18th piece, and there are several instructions of cresc.+p. Normally, when you cresc. the next volume should be stronger....　Normally, when you cresc., the next volume should be stronger...

　Now, finally, "Moonlight". 　The title "Moonlight" is not quite right for the first movement, but for the rest of the piece, it is far from the impression it gives.　The title "Moonlight" is not given by the maestro, so it is not surprising.　However, the first movement is so famous that everyone...

　I lived for a while on the island of Saint-Louis, Paris, about 50 years ago.　It was when the price of one franc was about 80 yen.　After dinner, I was always listening to Radio France or Antenne 2 (or was it Radio France or Antenne 2?) while wrapping up the day's work.

　I spent until last year inputting Beethoven’s piano sonatas up to the final 32nd one..　And from this year, I decided to work on No. 8 and No. 14, which I had not played before.　I started with No. 8, "Pathetique.　It seems to have been written when he was less than 30 years old, and it was in his later years....
