Good work on the Gymnopédie No. 1. Lets aim for a full performance next week!
Scales
D major & B minor melodic
- both 1 octave up and down
- take a moment to remember the key signature & fingerings before you start
- Check where the C# sits with the tuner, then play B- C#-D with the tuner
- Play the whole scale with the tuner and check each note
- Play the whole scale with the metronome and try to get it so you can play up and down in one breath
- take a break then try to play each scale perfectly one time
Pieces
Gymnopédie No. 1
- Practice the problematic sections and note transitions
- Exaggerate the dynamics
- Take a break, then try to play through the whole piece without stopping
