i'd like to have spent more time on this one to get it more 'lyrical' sounding. Again, it sounds plodding/lumbering to me now that I hear it back. It's ok for how much time I spent on it though. :)]]>

Notes:
- I take a lot of liberties with the tempo and dynamics with this one. I play the bottom note of the arpeggiated left hand almost as if it were a quarter note. Just a choice.. though I'm not sure Stephen Heller would approve ;)
- I'm back to using the Ravenscroft 275 piano sample library for this song. I just like the clarity of the bass end of the piano when using the sustain pedal.]]>

Notes:
- The repetitive nature of the left hand gave me fits. It was very difficult to keep proper tempo.
- The right hand melody needed to come out a lot more. It gets lost in the mix.

Self Rating = 3/5.

Notes:
- This track exposes my issues with tempo. There's nowhere to hide with a piece like this and I suspect it will make some of these "easier" pieces a real challenge.
- I like the ritardando measures.
- Pedaled bits feel mushy. Wish I hadn't been so aggressive with the pedal, though I blame some of that on the AP-620's pedal. The action of the pedal makes it almost binary.
- Just got the Ravenscroft yesterday. I'm enjoying playing around with the settings.]]> Selected Recording = Attempt 3 of 3
