Either my age is catching up with me or this particular piece is just hard for me to memorize but.....
Les Yeux Sorciers Ojos Brujos by Leo Brouwer is giving me a run for my memorizing money. I know many musicians no longer work on memorizing pieces. I personally use a large iPad Pro with an AirTurn Pedal now (thank you for the suggestion Michael Partington and David Russell). It works great! Although, my practice sessions now involve some real work learning how to infuse a piece with a valid personal interpretation infused with a proper sprinkle of emotion all while pulling it off of the page. For years I found that easier to do after memorizing and pondering the composition for a few months.

Memorization is a skill that I want to have. I mean, it would not hurt to have a great memory. I do not have a great memory myself, which is why I would love to acquire a skill like that. I would really love to have that in my bag of skills. There is so much that you can do if you could just memorize a lot of stuff. There is no such thing as memorizing far too much, man.
