Rhythm
- Do 5-Part Lap Map, making up your own rhythms. You can look at the Longy rhythms and choose ones you see there to try
- Then do 5-Part rhythm the “old” way
- stop if you make a mistake and figure out what the mistake was and which of the 3 causes of error it was
Scales, Chords, and Technique
Play D Major Scale and Chords
- hands separately looking at the keys, put hands together when easy
- remember all F’s and C’s are sharped
- use the same fingering as C major scale

Sacred Music Competition
Morning Prayer
- work 1-2 measures at a time, hands separately repeating several times until easy, then put hands together
- remember F#’s
- try to get the whole thing hands together by the time I see you at the end of March (slowly is fine)
Musette
- work hands together slowly, again you can do 1-2 measures at a time, repeat until easy before going forward
- remember F#’s
- when the notes get easier, play all 8th notes detached (not really short staccato, but not legato)
