Nice work with extended flexibility studies this week. Continue to incorporate these kinds of exercises into your practice routine.
Very nice playing with your Rochut etudes – No. 5 is in great shape. I appreciate your attention to detail, and the “big picture”. Remember: if a mistake creeps in more than a couple times, mark it in the music, and go over this passage slowly several times to reinforce playing it correctly.
Great sight reading with the duets, as well. I will bring copies of the Bordogni Rochuts next week, and we can work through these, and choose your favourite to perform in the May recital.
We can discuss more next week, but I’d say continue to plan on playing Rochut No. 5 in the recital as well. Perhaps you can do both a solo, and a duet.
Have a great week!
