Third piece as a 6 month piano beginner, Chopin's prelude in E minor. Short and incredibly beautiful, with a simplicity yet a richness which is mostly subtle.
Learning credits:
Jazer Lee (recommendations for beginner pieces) + overall etiquette

Broad timeline of learning:
Weeks 1 and 2: Notes of the first half
Weeks 3 and 4: Notes of the 2nd half and how to play half notes
Weeks 5, 6: Figuring out what exactly was the rhythm (every group of 8 notes has a flow)
Weeks 7,8: Recording (on iPhone), figuring out finger weights, rhythm/climax + using WD45 on an otherwise annoying sustain pedal to not make the clicking sounds.
