What Pieces Are You Learning Right Now?

[Raymondbl]

Wrist technique is important for arpeggios and scales, that's all.  You don't need to concentrate on your wrist - you just need to relax it, and you'll do the right motions naturally. 

You do want to keep them relaxed though, mostly to avoid injuring them. Having screwed up wrists sucks, trust me.

I used to have a really stiff wrist.  Luckily for me I managed to change my technique before I got injured, but I still got injured anyway.  Currently my third finger right hand is injured, and I have to play one hand pieces for 3 weeks, then 9 finger pieces for the next three weeks...

^That must suck-.- Get well soon (that goes for all of you people that have injured hands/fingers/wrists from playing piano)

Learning a couple songs right now on my violin for my final school concert, which is in three weeks, I think.  Let's hope I have most of these song names correct...

• Hallelujah Chorus (Handel)
• Cello Concerto in C Major - First Movement (Haydn)
• some Oboe Concerto thing (Vivaldi)
• a currently unnamed song by one of my classmates who plays the cello
• Fountain of Dreams (special arrangement by me)

I think we're getting another one, too.  Seems unlikely right now but whatever.  We also have another song that I don't think we'll be playing.

Couldn't post any video links, too lazy right now.  After the concert passes, I'll see just how close my names were here compared to what's on the program card at the performance.

I'm not a big fan of Wagner, but Liszt makes him so appealing.
