Here's one big chunk of the melody- I still need to smooth out the rough edges but I'm able to play the hands together!!

One of the obvious challenges is trying to connect the low bass LH octaves with the higher register triplets at the start of the passage; even in the official recording the pianist sort of rushes the triplets to buy time to hit the octaves so I'm not too stressed about playing the rhythm mechanically.. but still, I think I can definitely improve the lead time between each jump. I've been doing "shadow practicing" to help my muscle memory learn the exact distances but even so, I think a big factor is whether my hand can stretch to the octave in time.... sigh

So I figured out a jank setup to record the keys from above so HERE WE ARE!! I should probably get a proper tripod sometime but.. for now this'll have to do lol. The vibrations traveled up to my phone when I played too low or too hard so pls excuse the intermittent shaking..

Today's snapshot doesn't cover any new sections; it's a recording of all the sections that I've worked on thus far from the very start of the piece.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I've been chipping away at this piece but been pretty busy with work so I haven't had much time to like, actually practice.. but was able to clean up this small phrase today! I also worked on a few phrases before this one but the recordings I took are a little outdated now so maybe I'll take a longer recording next time.

Hi I didn't play piano properly for like this entire month lol and have come with a new piece yeet

A very rough read-through of the first third-ish of The Other Promise... spent some time working on the portion from 1:11 to 2:02 so it's not completely sightread but the rest is at most from playing a couple of times crudely. I should maybe record a crude play-through of the rest of the piece just so I can see where I started from hm hm
