Monday--January 13, 2003 (part II)

Some 10 hours later, I played the Rach2 first mvmt again. This time i timed myself on my stopwatch and it took about 25 minutes (no pausing for the cadences however). It's likely that my earlier time of 40 minutes is not accurate. I seriously doubt that my familiarity with the piece improved that much. This time around I didn't hedge as much and I'm beginning to sense some order for the melodies that I find strange.
