I think 'm going to give up on keeping my readers posted on how I'm feeling about my preparation fot his bastard recital.... reason being that I just don't fucking know.
Just today, I've gone from multiple extremes of how I feel about it.
This afternoon, the Bach was just peachy, I worked hard on it for about 2 hours fixing all the little bitchy parts. Tonight I ran through most of it..and it totally fucked me up the ass!
With the Beethoven, I worked my ass off on sections just so I could get it working reasonably well at a few metronome markings slower than it had previously been working.
Once again, I didn't touch Liszt at all today.. and I have a feeling that I'm going to play it badly at me lesson, and then it will lessen the positive aspect of how the other pieces have improved.
At least I wasn't the only person practicing tonight... well I was after midnight...but one of the other people doing their recital next week was there.
The only thing keeping me going these days is that I know once this is over, I won't have to practice piano anymore ... at least not with the same intention/goal.
I do plan on working hardcore on technique this summer... as in making myself versatile as an improviser... I've wanted to brush up my technique for a long time, but repertoire has gotten in the way.

So I have a performance tomorrow that seems ridiculous... we haven't rehearsed it in well over a month.... and this is the SECOND time ever I've played with these people... I have a feeling that I'm doing far too much for this particular credit.
Once again, I can't wait for the feeling of relief once all this undergrad gobblygoop is done with!
Now, I'm off to mark papers... that's right... I said I'd have them done tomorrow... so 2 am marking it is!
