Monday March 23

The blog is for monday March 23.
I practised for about 25 minutes last monday. I warmed up on the Bb concert scale up as high as i could go and as low as I could go. I am trying to incorperate the new Bb frech horn fingering into my practising because I am slowly discovering that the correct fingering, as hard as it is to remember, makes my upper register a much safer and easier territory to play in.

I mainly worked on Second Suite. I worked on the first movement from A-F I stopped at G because G was the section I found easiest. I uses my metronome set at a low tempo so I could attempt to get all the correct picthes and rhythms without the pressure of speed. As I improved I sped up the tempo. By the end of my practsing I was playing what I thought to be close to allegro. My main focuses for this practising session were rhythms, pitches and accents. I believe this session was a successful practising session.
