I see Vitaly Margulis (prof at UCLA) about every other week but he lives in Beverly Hills and it takes me 2.5 hours to drive there to see him. Yes he is really THAT good for me to drive all the way, but it gets tiring and I'm looking for someone closer. My goal is to play all of the Chopin Etudes. I can play 1/4 of them, know about 1/2 of them, and the other half I have never worked on. However for the ones that I can play I struggle with technique and fatigue (especially for Op 10, #1 and #2). Here is a sample of my playing on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JYEtaLZl9A If anyone can make some good recommendations, I would be very grateful. Thanks =) FYI: I never went to a music school. I only studied privately, and I am an engineer during the day. YouTube Channel: www.youtube.com/user/fuzzy8balls
