It’s recital time!  Are you having a recital any time soon?

I have decided, for the first time, not to require memorization at this recital.  I know it will take pressure off, but I wonder if it will mean that pieces won’t be as polished.

I know this subject has been discussed in many forums before, but I am interested to know how Piano Teacher’s Retreat feel about memorization at recitals.

Feel free to leave a comment about your reasoning behind your decision!
