I practiced for about an hour today, and worked on melodic intervals, harmonic intervals, and chords! I played for you as well, and got good advice to stay relaxed and not tense in the hands and arms, and keep both hands in the proper position through the piece.

practice!

hey there. I've been practicing everyday for at least 10mins. i have gotten a lot better in playing with my right hand better than my left. I still feel though that I'm still not grasping onto how long I'm suppose to hold onto a beat. for instance the whole note is throwing me off a little bit.

I practiced today for an hour while you were in the classroom.

I am working on: understanding some of the vocabulary (ex. leger line), sightreading, becoming stronger at reading the bass cleft and playing with my left hand.

Questions: I heard you talking to another student about sightreading, and something about a taconic. I have not taken any specific sight reading class, but is that something that will come up when playing the piano.

Thanks!
Oh and I would prefer the 7 slot if its available and works well for you, but I can do 7:45 if you need!
Just seeing if I did it right and it's working! Let me know

Thank you for inviting me to your blog! Happy practicing and blogging! See you on Thursday at 7:00. If I hear back from both of you in time- would it be possible to move you guys to 7:45 or would that be too late for you?
