Today I am just playing the song over and over again to make it better. I have played the song a many times and often with a few mistakes. I will just play the song a lot more so that i would get the hang of it when the day comes where i have to perform the song.

Practice makes perfect and that is what i am doing right now. To do this i just need my guitar and the musical sheet.

Today I have played the whole song in my guitar. I had a few mistakes but it feels good to be able to finish the song. The ending part of the song is not that hard as it is more or less the same as the start. Fur Elise may seem like an easy song but when you get to the hard part it is really difficult to play it according to the tempo and be fast.

It is very hard to do so and i am still practicing on the hard part.

Today I kept on practicing my Fur Elise song. I have been listening to the actual Fur Elise song so that the way i play would be the same as the real song. I practiced the song using a guitar and heard the song through my computer using the internet.

By now i am doing well on the start of the song, I am starting to learn the trickiest part of the song. It is hard but I'm sure i'll be able to do it.

In this picture, I am practicing my song. I used and played the guitar to practice.

The Decision-Making

Beforehand, we made a booklet about a famous composer of our choice. From there we were told to play a classical piece from whoever we chose to make a booklet of. I have chosen to make a booklet of Beethoven and so i have to play one of his classical songs on my instrument which is the guitar

At first i have chosen to do moonlight sonata, instead of fur elise. But then i found moonlight sonata to be very long and very difficult. I did not had enough time to learn moonlight sonata, i knew. So i opted to do fur elise instead which was less difficult.
