We had quickly finished up the Debussy prelude the week before, so we reviewed that to begin with. Everything seemed pretty good with that.
Then we went into the Italian Concerto. I was pretty excited about this, but it turned out to be very boring for some reason. It wasn’t nearly as fun as the Debussy prelude.
It was fairly easy, too. I of course am probably missing some of the subtleties with voicing and such, but technically it feels very easy to me, even easier than the prelude.
However, I learned 22 measures, which was almost the entire first page. I was pretty happy with that.
I really haven’t the first idea about how it is supposed to sound, so I’ll have to find some good recordings.
