Okay, as I i mentioned somewhere before, I've been practicing this for a while, and today i found the time needed record it. It took about 60 takes, and this is the 57th of them. The reason it's uploaded in the forum and not youtube is because It's still a bit sloppy, and I'm going to record a better version. Maybe
Anyways, Id like to hear comments about this, and, about my technicue generally, And how much do I have to improve to make it pass in the rec program. No need to tell me where i screwed up or how bad i did it, i know that very well

So here it is:

It really sounds like the tempo is too fast for you man. Slow it down a bit and perfect it there first. Good effort though

Great take, couple of notes weak here and there, but it seems you got it all done, just need time to settle a bit until it is perfect. Well done

Good job, you´re definitely getting it. Just slow down a bit (120 bpm is enough, in my opinion) and clean up the dirty parts. Well done!

I think that most of the sloppiness if caused by the (now much smaller) recording fear of mine. Just more takes and it'll come

Posted by: dark_dude Sep 14 2009, 09:10 PM

I still have that in large amounts!

Give it a bit of time and you'll be able to do a great take.

Great take! I guess there are some work on it, it isn't quite accurate yet, but this is a nice job. Congrats!

awesome job and i know what you mean about recording fear.. i think i'm just getting over that

Posted by: Bogdan Radovic Sep 14 2009, 10:24 PM

Very good take! That fear of recording will wear of with constant recording No other way around it then to record as much as you can!

Still missing an answer to that would this pass rec program... I don't want to post it into youtube unless i know that it's good . I have fixed my picking, i can now pick this fully from wrist, but if this take can pass the rec test, then i'd rather spend my time practicing something new (like phrygian soloing -advanced, It so hard with all those 5- and 6-notes per beat rhytm patterns and i just can't stop practicing it )
So, Could it pass the rec...?

EDIT: Btw, Are double posts allowed?

Well done, you'll almost there. But I must say that i understand why You are shaking your hand at the end, if it was the 57'th take..... My hand would have shaken after the first 8 bars...

Posted by: Wabba Sep 27 2009, 03:08 PM

Oh yeah, indeed, but it looks still stupid...

Posted by: Staffy Sep 27 2009, 03:28 PM

Nah, if that argentian guy shook his hand after playing "Flight of the bumble-bee" in 340 BPM (Guiness World Record), I think its allowed for You to shake Yours as well....,

Posted by: Wabba Sep 27 2009, 03:31 PM

Hmmm, yeah, i guess so , But what do you think, could this pass the rec test? Or is there too many mistakes and bad stuff?

Posted by: Staffy Sep 27 2009, 03:39 PM

Hmmm, that was a tough question. I really dont know. Since its such a hard piece Muris has to be a little kind...
But personally, I had rehearsed for one more week or so. If You are not 100% satisfied yourself, You should'nt post it.

Well, i'm not 100% satisfied with it, because I make mistakes and play it from the elbow, BUT I also already started practicing a new lesson, which is taking all my time, so maybe I just can't participate yet..

Posted by: Sollesnes Sep 27 2009, 04:06 PM

Don't worry about it. Take your time, and work on other lessons meanwhile, and you won't be bored with it.
If you are not pleased about it, and know what you should do to improve, you don't need anyone to rate it, and tell you what you already know

Posted by: Wabba Sep 27 2009, 04:20 PM

Actually, my greatest flaw is that I'm extremely unsure about everything, so practically i need other people to tell me what i know

Posted by: Marcus Siepen Sep 27 2009, 07:31 PM

Ne need to be unsure, you recorded a cool take.
