I've tried learning River Flows In You using the sustain pedal. Chloe taught me during an REMT recording on how to use the sustain pedal. She told me to step on the pedal each time I change chords. Jun Yuan also taught me how to step and release the pedal properly. I find it very difficult to coordinate after a while.

After three weeks of practice, I can play without the music sheets now. At first, I started practicing with right hand, then left hand, then both hands. There are some parts where I need to stretch my fingers till 1 octave. It is quite challenging for me as my fingers are quite short. But I kept on practicing playing octave notes and now I can play it better. Also when stretching my fingers, my finger doesn't have the strength to play some notes and therefore I missed some notes. And if I were to press the keys harder, it will result in the notes played being too loud and it sounds awful. That is one area that I need to work on. Also at the second chorus, there is one part that goes too fast and and I have trouble coordinating between left hand and right hand. But with enough practice, I should be able to do it. At the last part of the song, I'm quite unsure how to play as the left hand is quite different from the first two verses although the right hand is still the same. I will forget how to play it sometimes. I think I should practice with the music sheet in front of me more often.
