Can now play Bach’s prelude #1 from the tempered klavier book 1 without too many misses. Not at full tempo, but pretty decent.
I still am not good at getting right and left hand operating independently, but with slow practice and enough repetition, I can learn some passages. Working both hands while sightreading is probably never going to happen.
Found a new favorite piece: Beethoven Opus 57.
Piano Sonata # 23 “Apassionata”.
I love the slow second movement, but apparently 1st and 3rd movement are much more popular.
If you have never heard it, I urge you to check it out.
I can play only the first 8 bars so far, but those are my favorite 8 bars anyways.
Here it is on youtube played by Solomon Cutner

Does anyone have a definition for when you have learned to play the piano?
