Brahms första pianokonsert : från övningsrummet till scenen

The goal of this independent thesis is to follow through the process of learning Brahms concerto no. 1 from the very beginning until the performance. The goal is to provide an analysis of this process, thus understanding it better and also gaining new insights in what can be improved. I used a diary of the practicing process to write down my experiences, videos from the practicing room and performance, analysis of the practicing methods, and also analysis of the performances as tools to investigate the topic. I hope that this thesis will be a work of interest for musicians who are interested in getting new insights into the practicing and performing process of a pianist
