...Well, in all fairness, my teacher suggested this to me ages ago, but didn't specify what movement I should play. So I spent a really long time moping around before I finally picked one.
So anyways, I decided to play 'April' from Tchaikovsky's The Seasons.
I kind of wonder why it's called The Seasons though, I mean, there's one for every month, doesn't that make it "The Months" instead? ANYWAYS!
So this piece is very pretty, and I think I might be able to learn it... maybe. Hopefully it'll boost my skills.
Tchaikovsky's The Seasons is really a lovely piano suite, and it's too bad that nobody really knows about it. The movement I chose, April, has the subtitle 'Snowdrop', which is a kind of flower. It's a lovely mental image to keep in mind as you play the piece!
