1,000 Days of Music - Day 64: Still Half Baked

The Beethoven Sonatina in Book 2 is considered one piece with two parts. I wanted to put them together, though they are still half baked. For me, it is an exercise in reading, performance, and nerve. The worst feeling while playing is the endless background loop in my head pleading with me not to mess up. The best feeling is simply enjoying the music and staying in the moment. I had a little of both in this performance. I can keep practicing until the joy overpowers the fear. That is success.
