ASSIGNMENTS

  1. 💚Italian Song by Peter Ilyich Tchaikovsky

    1. Follow the practice video carefully that I sent to your thread.

    2. It’s four measures of music, hands together, very slowly, with a special focus on expression and hand movement. Don’t worry about keeping a steady beat.

    3. Pause the video after every four measures to practice.

    4. Eventually you should be able to play more than 4 measures at a time - start combining to do 8, then 12, then 16, etc.

  2. ❤️❤️❤️Celebrate Theory: Level 2 Unit 1

    1. Please make this a priority.

    2. Complete the entire unit and we’ll check it at your next lesson.

  3. 💚Basic Rhythmic Training

    1. Prepare nos. 14-18

      1. Conducting arm should be more like a “chop” and don’t go too far to the right for beat two.

      2. Remember to conduct one measure of silence.

      3. Study the rhythm first, then go through without stopping - work through your mistakes. Fix them after you finish.

      4. Hold the sound of the “ta” for the full value of the note.

  4. 💚Sight Reading Piano Adventures: 2A (left off on page 33)

    1. Sight-read two “days” per practice session.

    2. Study the rhythm first (time signature and rhythm of the notes)

    3. Study the notes (key signature, intervals, etc.)

    4. Set a slow pace and don’t stop to correct mistakes.

    5. Once you fix the mistakes in your mind, do it again.
