Studying Notes

Expression

• Felt Upright nice for this
• p loud enough
• Slow
• Keep simultaneity
• Micro-dynamics in soft-range
• Micro-timing durations (keeping simultaneous)
• Per fragment:
  • Prefix and verse does not need much to sound nice.
  • Chorus bit less soft, more expressive.
  • Bridge bit soft and mysterious
  • Finale more pronounced and ‘made special’.

Technique

• The 9ths are hard to grasp.
