Now after relearning the Liszt Un Sospiro, I’m not sure it is a good repertoire piece because of the technical challenges. Liszt, Franz: Opus/Catalogue Number Op./Cat. As an adult student, my aim has been just to enjoy the music I learn and the process of learning, not to perfect my technical skills. When I resumed study as a middle-aged adult, I didn’t have years of scale, trill, and arpeggio practice to recall. I was almost 14 when I began studying piano, and I took lessons for just five years.
