I had my recital yesterday. It went great! No memory slips, no wrong notes, and I wasn't even nervous. I completely owned the audience. It was amazing. I played the following:
Chopin Nocturne in c# minor
Brahms Intermezzo from Op.118 No.1
I'm so glad it's over now. All thats left is the piano jury and I'm off for a good month till next semester. It feels great to know that all the hard work and practice REALLY DID pay off in the end after I performed.
Just thought I'd share my joy with you people. And thanks for the support from the people in my first thread..."wish me luck".

Good job, I know how good it feels after you finish an important recital! Now get yourself some blow and celebrate! (Hm, maybe I am kidding..maybe..)

PianoMajor:
Was that the Chopin Nocturne Op 27 No 1 in c# minor or the posthumous c# minor?
Glad it went well for you.
Regards,
