Day 49: I’ve been trying to get better at playing loud recently, so today I played though a few sections of Bruckner 8. This one in particular comes at the opening of the last movement. I played it a little bit faster than written in this recording because I wanted everything to fit in under a minute, though I feel this may have been beneficial because it forced me to really slap these notes into place (though the end could’ve been a little bit smoother).

Also, playing this loud requires me to use more air than I am used to, so I have been working on increasing my capacity as well. Do you have any breathing exercises?
