I feel like I'm really
I feel like I'm really close to getting Debussy's 'Reflets dan l'eau' finished off - I'm being a bit lazy on some fingering, which probably isn't too smart... but I'm getting pretty close to being able to connect up the harder measures without pausing for hand placement. I don't feel ready to play it for friends - what's hard to explain is that even if you feel like you have 95% of the piece learned, it doesn't mean it will be 95% effective to play it. The narrative sweep doesn't really start to come into play until you're learning it that last 2%, so to play it for someone before then means that you're just sorta showing off technique and flourishes. Well, there, I guess I just explained it.
