Question:
Finished my Grade 10 with 74, so I wasn't eligible for ARCT. In uni now, practicing all my FFPC favourites for fun. Haven't touched technique since last June, I believe. No ear training since early last year for a little bit. Should I go back to take the retest (by that mean supplemental ear test) for that one percent more that I needed to advance to ARCT?

I think ARCT is only a rank in Ontario having to do with the Royal Conservatory of Toronto or something, so outside of here, what comes after Grade 10?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Ya I guess the syllabus changed. At least I don't have to take the actual practical exam again, I just need an ear test to supplement and boost my mark.

Pieces
------
Waltz in e-, Chopin
Snow Games, Tsitaros
Clair De Lune, Debussy
Pathetique Sonata (1st and 2nd movs.), Beethoven
French Suite (Allemande and Gigue), Bach

Gallop, Tsitsaros
(study), Lyadov

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I would venture to guess that a virtuoso study has things that you would have to spend years on and never truly master. I mean like a typical Czerny study would be ridiculously easy in comparison to say, Revolutionary Etude?

We have stuff like 4 on 3, "running" octaves, cadenzic scale passages, lengthy pieces (endurance and stamina come into play)...as compared to a 1/2 page study.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

@Arienas

It's more like "I want to help my friend out." As much as I would love recognition, I am always thinking "this is her song, it's called accompaniment for a reason." Plus it's fun to see how two instruments combine to make a beautiful piece

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
