♥Grade 7 Piano Practical Exam♥

Today is my Grade 7 Piano Practical Exam. Almost every year, I thought I was well prepared for the exam but still I'll be nervous. This year, I thought the same thing but no nervous feeling. The nervous feeling was replaced by excitement.

However, the exam did not go the way I wanted it to. When I went in, I played scales first. Guess what? My head blank out for D minor Arpeggios. Didn't even know how to put my fingers on the keys. Gosh! After a few tries, I manage to play. Surely minus marks on that.

After scales, I played my 3 exam pieces.
A3:Sonata in F Minor went well.
B4:Mazurkas in A minor was suppose to be my highest scoring piece.
As usual, my highest scoring piece always give me unexpected results. I broke down at the last part which I never had before during practice. Ah!
C1:Lowside Blues. My favourite piece among the 3 pieces. Not bad but I thought I didn't control the pedal well.

Next, sight reading. The examiner held my Amigo for me. Think she became impatient as I played it SUPER slowly. Haha. What to do.

Last but not least, Oral. Dunno what happen. Maybe it was a Minor piece but I said Major. I dunno. Hope I get more points.

Whatever. No point crying over spilled milk. Lets pray hard and work hard to get better results for my Grade 8 exam next year or 2 years later ba.

Stay tune. Haha.
