Recording with Audacity

I sped up the tempo of the accompaniment and i was able to still maintain the piece. I recorded with audacity, so i could hear myself play with the accompaniment and i discovered that my tone is very breathy and to improve this, i practiced long tones to help my length of breath. I was having difficulty with the articulation because i couldn't hold my breath for more than 4 beats. I worked hard on the sfz and it is coming along. I still could accent it even more. I am paying closer attention to my dynamics now that i have the rhythm and notes in place. The dynamics are marked exactly, so i am trying to follow them carefully. The high f and e are also coming better and i am able to play them up to speed now. My difficulty was changing my fingers fast enough and also keeping my mouth in place to play the high notes. My tempo is finally getting faster (closer to Allegro), but it could still use some more work, so practice, practice, practice!
