Made a couple practice recordings after watching The Pianist. Here's a Schubert Impromptu recording.

Another recording is the Nocturne in C# minor, posthumous by F. Chopin (this piece is played 3 times in the movie).

A reasonable idea would be to have one "recording" piece that I work on each month (a piece I've already learned, but haven't "polished")...and one new piece that I learn. I believe recordings are invaluable in identifying areas that could be improved. When I listen to my recording, I notice things that I otherwise wouldn't have picked up on. I plan on listening to the recording and following the music score...taking notes.
