Chopin’s Ballade No. 1 in g minor, Op. 23

I’m still working on this beast. I don’t get to practice much (less than once a week), but this piece keeps calling me and I check in with it as much as possible and try to make small gains. This video is largely to diagnose hand movements — efficient choreography, necessary rest and resetting — and caught my left hand looking a little crazy, hopefully largely an effect of the angle. But I trust my body and brain will absorb some of what it learns here.
