I will join you in your optimism. Who knows, maybe this platform will pick up steam in the future. I’ve encountered quite a few technical challenges with Lemmy too, so I can see that if things persist as they are, there would be a barrier to people participating here.

Nice to hear a recent performance, and such a captivating one at that. The dynamics on the tremolos in the first movement are lovely. Nice bassoon part at 9:50, in the fire chaconne, too. Interesting percussion. Do you happen to know whether the percussion would have been historically accurate?

I think it’s funny that there’s such an emphasis on simplicity and accessibility in self-study resources, yet the one book I consistently see mentioned by self-teachers is CiC.
