May 2024 - Brahms Rhapsody practice

Practicing one of my favourite pieces:

The video shows the exposition section where musical ideas are unveiled. The other two sections are still work in progress 😊 so hopefully I will video the complete rhapsody at some point in the near future.

March 2024 - Dvorak's Stabat Mater - "Amen"

Last movement of the Dvorak's Stabat Mater performed by the Ulster Orchestra and Belfast Philharmonic Choir.

Extraordinary piece of music performed by so many talented musicians. An honour to be part of it.

I'm on the right hand side (if you can spot me 😊) 

March 2024 - How to practice effectively

Mastering any physical skill takes practice. Practice is the repetition of an action with the goal of improvement.

 

Keep practicing and you will achieve your goals. 

You only need the 3Ds:

'Discipline, Determination and Dedication'

 

And Remember:

"Don't strive for Perfection, for it remains elusive, but aim always for Excellence

"Practice makes Excellent, not Perfect"
