I also played the first ending of the 2nd section wrong.

]]> 2025-10-14 15:56:30 UTC https://padlet.com/fssamusicians/dio2x8dd69rcy42a/wish/3631989553 Sonata No.3, Alexander Jimenez alexanderjimenez2028 https://padlet.com/fssamusicians/dio2x8dd69rcy42a/wish/3631996057 There was a lot of rushing especially towards the end where I usually struggle with my intonation. There’s no emotion in my playing and is more robotic than it is human. Little to no dynamics especially along the center of my playing and I abuse my long fingers for easier fingering instead of doing it properly.

That is something I need to work on, along with my intonation for pitch. Tempo is another thing I need to work on for the dotted half notes

I think my biggest problem is my intonation with my shifts back and forth. In addition, I think I should get better on my string crossing as it sounds very crunchy.

The last shift to A was off and the dynamics weren’t there

Overall good intonation in my opinion though.

Also, I should work on keeping a steady tempo.
