I recently reconnected with my college roommate from SUNY Buffalo 1969, Roberto Laneri (after only about 55 years) - well, he went back to Rome in the early 70’s, where he has had a stellar career in all kinds of strange and wonderful musical areas. He is in the process of having his complete piano music issued on a commercial recording, and he was kind enough to send me a few of the pieces for me to look at. He particularly recommended that I learn this one, his Notturno. I sent him a practise recording, and he replied that “it’s a good start, meaning your approach is correct (the right notes and rhythms).” Well, that was a relief! But he agreed with me that it was too slow and careful, so I have thrown caution to the winds and speeded it up a little, to make this new practise mp3.
