I just practiced for another half hour. I'm anxious for you to hear and get your advise. I'm wondering if I should play one and make it perfect or play two?
Thanks!
Just practiced for a half hour, and plan on coming back tonight to practice another half hour. My two recital pieces are coming together well!

I practiced tonight for an hour from 7PM-8PM. I worked on the two recital pieces and played for you many times and got some help on how to play certain parts of the songs.
Thanks!

I just wanted to let you know I will not be in class tonight, I am not getting back to Marist from my family trip until late tonight. I will make sure I practice and record it on here.

My apologies,
Cally

Hola!

Just thinking about this Thursday- a bunch of people told me they were not going to be here, and I'm just trying to figure out a condensed schedule for those people who will still be here. Can you please post a message ASAP listing what times you are available on Thursday? I can be at Marist anytime from 5-9. After you send me your availability I'll let you know what time your lesson will be. If I won't see you, have a good break!

So today I practiced for a total of 2 hours (my 1 hour for this week and my hour for spring break that I didn't do and was making up!)

Here is what I did:
1. 5-5:30 PM played piano (worked on one of the pieces I am going to do for the final, "Part of Your World")
2. 5:40-6:10 PM did some written practice by doing the class book exercises
3. 6:40-7:10 PM played piano (worked on scales and also played using one hand at a time "The Amazing Aerobics of Hanon" on pg. 78 and79)
4. 7:10-7:30 PM did some more written practice (continuing where I left off in the class book written exercises)
5. 7:30-7:40 PM talked to you about some questions I had and you printed out two Beethoven songs for me to work on.

C Major Chords

I practiced for about an hour today and am currently working on how to play chords. I seem to have a harder time playing with my right hand than with my left hand.
