I must add a big question mark to my participation in this. I've been all too busy composing this year and have had very little time to sit down at the piano. The same continues throughout this summer.  I certainly won't be able to record all 12 etudes of Szymanowski's op33, but I might be able to do a selection of 5-6 etudes. I'm not sure if I want to do this as the opus is supposed to be performed as a whole, all etudes attacca, but is it okay with you if I choose this solution?

I think other than the idea that the pieces must be etudes, you are free to choose as you like. I'd certainly vote for some of the set rather than none. Incidentally, long ago I had one of those "(X Number) of Pieces from the Modern Repertoire" type of collections, and it did have just one of those Szymanowksi op. 33 etudes all by its lonesome. I don't know if the Szymanowski himself authorized it to be published like that or not.

I was listed as doing Chopin 10/10, and it did not get transferred to that list. I'm still seeing how it will come out, though.

From the first post:
The idea was proposed in the Adult Beginner’s Forum’s Proposed Chopin Nocturne Recital List that the Pianist Corner organises a “Concert Etude Recitalâ€.
I just assumed because it was in the Adult Beginner section that the level was implied. Oops.

If I would have known about it sooner, I would've played 10/8. Unfortunately, I just don't have the time. Good luck!

Guys, my teacher wants me to move on from this etude and start two Chopin etudes, which I will NOT have up in time for this recital  . I made a recording of the Mozskowski a few weeks ago, but it's definitely not my best. Better to submit a crappy recording or no recording at all? Matt

I'm actually making progress with Scrabin Etude op. 8 no. 5 I'm working on, too bad I could never finish it in time.

Ha July 31st is my Birthday, this will be the best present ever, thanks you guys. Unfortunately the only etude I know is Chopin op.10 no.12, but I don't have it anywhere performance level since I forgot how to play it. Maybe I can finish one of my etude compositions.

I'm sorry, gonna have to resign completely from this. The concert falls on the same day as my next orchestration deadline and I haven't really had time to practise seriously the last weeks. I might post a recording of the etudes later on the forums when I get them in shape.

Unfortunately I have to back out as well I was making some good headway last month, but school has been incredibly hectic this past month, AND I just moved to a new apartment, so I have been spending my spare time unpacking rather than practicing. Ditto on posting recordings eventually on the recordings forum.

It's not looking good for me, either, which is embarrassing considering that I probably have the least challenging etude of the lot. Perhaps that's the reason I neglected to start it until late May; it's just not yet where it should be.
I do plan to soldier on! As the details about submitting our recordings haven't yet been announced and the deadline not yet specified, it's in the realm of possibility that I will still participate.

My submission is in, I think. I pm YD the link to my box.net for the recording. I hope that's how we're supposed to do.
