  1. Some very good listening, Cherry. Just to clear a few points up...

    7) " there has different rhythmic layers, and there has 2 layers" - can you specify which instrument/s/hands are playing them?

    Pitch
    6) This point is unclear - is the key changing?

    Texture:
    1. There are 2 layers of the sound. - Idenfity who's playing which layer.
    2. the accompaniment is the role of each of layer. Explain this further, as it's undlear what you mean.
    4. the texture is full.
    5. the texture does not remain the same through out because there has the role of improvisation - These last 2 points contradict each other. Is the texture full for certain sections?

    Tone Colour:
    1. identify the instrument playing.
    3. the sound make the listener feel is very romantic.
    4. the sound vary sometimes, sometimes soft sometimes strong and sometimes very fast sometimes very slow. This is unclear - how does it relate to tone colour?
    5. they are using the role of improvisation to alter the tone quality. How?

    Structure:
    If you can't answe questions 2 & 3, take them out and combine your answers for quesitons 1 & 4 in as much detail as possible. What is happening in each section?

  2. It would have also been a good idea to look at some piano music OTHER than solo piano. It's important for you to understand the role of a piano in an ensemble as well as solo. This would also give you more to talk about.

    A pretty good effort but there are a few language problems we'll need to look at too. Try typing your information into a word processing document (such as 'Word') before you post it.
