I Due Fuimi Cherry Garden Mix 151218

Mr Sandbags

This is the recording of my performance of Einaudi’s ‘I due fuimi’ at the Littlewick Green church hall as part of the Cherry Garden Music winter concert.

It was played on a seemingly quite old Steinway concert grand. I aim to find out more about this piano. The recording was made using my iPhone laid on the piano body.

I was nervous as hell despite all my practice (including two stints at Tottenham Court Road tube on the piano on the concourse).

This isn’t as good as I can play it but, listening to it now, it’s not as bad as I’d feared. A couple of quite noticeable fluffs and a few less obvious ones.

But for my first time on stage in front of an audience I think it was not bad.

By the end I had so much adrenaline in my system that I was shaking and I’m afraid I did not enjoy the applause as much as I should have.

Next time!
