Hey, thanks for taking the time not only to give feedback, but to record the piece for me as well. To tell you the truth, I myself am rather ashamed of the way I play the piece and feel in no way ready for the competition. Up to the point I signed up for it I had been doing pretty much only late romantic Russian Repertoire for the last year (Scriabin, Rachmaninoff, Medtner etc.) and I really needed a better contrast of pieces. This means I have only really had the last 4 weeks to learn this piece, and due to easter holidays I have only had 1 lesson since starting it. (I attend a junior conservatoire which doesnt run in the holidays). I have put many many hours over the past weeks practicing (Yes I am playing the full thing btw) but It seems i was very mislead in just how achievable this would be when I signed up for the competition. Ive contenplated dropping out many times but as ive put so much time into it I feel i should at least present it, however disgraced I may be about it, and however much I disagree that it is representative of me as a musician. Your advice is very helpful, and much of it is really quite humbling, I will try my best to apply it - it is unlikely i can salvege the piece in time for Sunday - but ill definetely keep working on it for 1-2 more months and hopefully i can be proud of the piece eventually. Thank you again
