101

101, a lucky but embarrassing number.

For the very first time I passed my ABRSM piano exam with this kind of marks (=P although it's only my second time taking piano exam). The grade 6 cert actually came quite easy to me. Practising only during weekends, cannot expect much.

Breakdown of marks:

piece A:2 - Gigue. 23

piece B:1 - Prelude in C sharp minor. 20

piece C:1 - Four Calling Birds. 21

scales: 12

sight reading: 13

oral: 12
Total: 101

The borderline, just one mark above the passing mark. I think it's the simpathy of the examiner that passed me. I'm grateful yet I'm sad. Grateful because finally i can call myself a grade 6 piano player(advanced player). Sad because my target was achieving merit, which is 19 marks more than what i have right now.

Still I am happy. For I'm so lucky. For I'm blessed. For I have a new qualification. For I have not wasted my examination fee. For I didn't pay the expensive piano fee for nothing.

My target for piano: Achieve grade 8 with merit next november!

This is my new exam board:

P/s: I'll try to upload some of my playing here if I'm satisfied with them! Keep your fingers crossed! I'll keep my fingers crossed as well!
