1000 Words [END]

This is a FULL TAKE of 1000 Words, uninterrupted from start to finish. We’ll treat this as a final take so I’ll include both positives and negatives, and look back on the learning process as a whole. This is.. potentially my Final post on this piece but I’m trying really hard to keep practicing and perfecting this, so we’ll see!!

Hello, hello- today’s post is for a recording from May 28. Haven’t had a chance to get a decent recording more recently, and at this rate, I feel like the next recording will be the last for this piece.. just more progress on the piece from the prelude to the main theme’s first appearance, and this time we go to the end for the first time (on camera, at least).

This is a progress video of the first half or so of 1000 Words, I’d say with about three days of practice? I was working on another project for most of last week and was waffling on this piece but I finally sat down and started learning properly. There are still some rough spots but overall, progress is coming along!

This is a first read (and also first.. listen?) of 1000 Words from FFX-2 from earlier this month; I only clocked in like 10 hours as a kid and unfortunately never went back to the game but I know the plot vaguely and FFX also still hurts my feelings so HERE WE ARE!! I got a new piano book and was browsing through things to sightplay and I stopped after the first 30 seconds or so because 1) I was too distracted getting emotional over the chords to READ and 2) I wanted to record my very first sightplay for this. I actually also had not listened to this AT ALL before playing, so.. it was an interesting sightread..
