Technique/Scales

  • G major scale and arpeggios (two 8vas) – hands separately, then together. For scales, pause at each place where you cross under/over to make sure the correct hand goes first: rh on ascending, lh on descending
  • Ploger: 6-Part Lap Map improv and 6-part Longy Rhythm (separately)

Repertoire

Nocturne

  • Try copying directly from the score, do one measure then play it. Maybe do up to 4 measures each day
  • work m. 31 slowly, but it’s almost there
  • practice in the details of double-stems (you may need to do this HS slowly at first)
