Resumo:
This Final Graduation Project presented to the Professional Graduate Program in
Music (PPGPROM) of the School of Music (EMUS) at the Federal University of Bahia
(UFBA), comprising the Memorial, the Article, the Final Reports, and the Final Product,
proposes accounts of experiences in the learning process and preparation of a solo
piano recital featuring a repertoire typically required in competitions and entrance,
classification, and promotion exams at various educational institutions. The article
included in this work addresses some processes for resolving technical challenges in
the preparation of Franz Liszt's Sonata in B minor. As this is a piece that demands an
advanced level of performance from the performer, there is a wide variety of pianistic
technical aspects that could be explored, resulting in reports on more efficient and less
fatiguing ways to study and execute them. We reference concepts found in the works
of H. Neuhaus, J. Lhevinne, J.C. Hoffmann, and E. Y. Liberman. Although we focus on
a specific piece, it is expected that the models and suggested study strategies
described here can be applied to other repertoires by students and professionals at
different levels
