I told you it was good!

Do you get any more detailed commentary?

Fabbo, eru! 80% is what it says it is. In universities, 70% is the threshold for a First Class mark, almost always. I'm sure it's the same at conservatoires.  Smiley Smiley

Even though you're not "supposed" to put them on the black notes, you still get a from me Smiley

Yes, either a little bit from the chair of the panel or lots from the "external specialist". The chair's comments run

This was a recital of two halves (both on a high level) but the Brahms reaching a truly outstanding level - a profoundly moving experience for the audience. In the Beethoven sonata playing was secure (despite one memory lapse) + showed sincerity, if not yet probing enough. Rounded off with a delightful and witty 'Ragamuffin', this playing left the panel with an extremely satisfying impression. Some memorable playing here!

Embarrassed

I feel really guilty actually, lots of people got really low marks, in the 40s....

Guilt is not the right feeling here, and must be banished forthwith.

I wish I'd been there, Eruanto. I love piano recitals and never find the time to get to them, and this sounds like a very nice program in deed. Congratulations on your success!

Better be careful that you're never caught in a truel with any two of them though...

Don't feel guilty!  Well done.

An experienced and jaded examiner writes:

Eru, you just do not get 80% without being deserving of it. We educators like to stay our hands in dishing out the 70s, let alone anything higher. Well done!

Cool - absolutely agree, although they could have picked out some better things about the Beethoven than 'secure'.....

Well done
