masterclass

attended horn masterclass yesterday. basically, nothing to much to comment about the masterclass. Barry Tuckwell focus more on the perfomance aspect of playing the horn. Certainly he went into details of the concerto's and sonata's played by the 3 hornist. Its something like what goes on every piano lesson now where my piano teacher will sit beside me and go into detail bar by bar of my exam pieces. other than that, learned nothing much, mostly were taught by Miss Tan during secondary school days, more or less a refresher course for me. Was hoping that tuckwell will go into technical aspect of playing but didn't. He mention is a One to One thing, what works well on one player might not work well on the others. which is one point i could agree on. but at least a little something general on horn playing pls... haha! lesson over.

one thing about this masterclass, i was paying much attention to the pianist other than the horn. LoLz.. the pianist is good.. very good. haha! gotta prac on my piano more, technic is getting no where now, lack of time to practice. But i like one thing, is the 2 jazz piece i have to work on now. like jazz alot, but still J.S Bach and Beethoven are my favourites. why work on jazz? well, my piano teacher mention of jazz gaining popularity in sight reading, so she is preparing me for it which i don't think i have much of a problem handling it. haha!
