• almost good to go

Bach D & C#

30'

• metronome 60 away from instrument
• metronome a tempo playing landmarks
• C# needs new proportional tempo marking (quarter to quarter, instead of dotted quarter to quarter; this will allow faster prelude and slower fugue)
• D tried 68/68
• D is just about ready to go; finish early next week & play for JAM

6/27/13

Concerto
30'

• did everything with metro @60
• PQRST
• ABCDEF
• started O
• this is getting exciting! (working memory with metro is a really good idea)

Bell
25'

• contact composer for correct metronome marking
• worked landmarks 1-2-3 and last three; one section to go!
• b minor section: should be one or two landmarks?

Couperin
25'

• checked first edition for repeat signs
• worked entire piece/individual landmarks @ 50

Bach C# & D
30'

• slow metro w/ landmarks
• then play through with metro a tempo (see yesterday)
• 70 works for the D Maj (especially w/o metro to allow phrases)
• C# metric proportions may not be right
• next time: work away from inst. w/ metro

6/26/13

Couperin
25'

• start with last couplet
• next time, start by working away from the instrument

Bach: C# and D

set stopwatch to see how much time it takes: 54'

• work landmarks away from inst
• play landmarks w/metronome
• C# Prel: 60; Fugue: 60
• D Prel: 70; Fugue 8th note 70
• Play a tempo w/metronome
• rough tempo sketch:
• C# Prel 65, Fugue 86
• D: P & F @ 72 (fugue too fast? prelude too slow?)
• note: proportional tempo formula for C#
• 65/3 = 86/4

Bach c#

25'

• see yesterday's notes
• revert to two landmarks at opening, instead of one for all entrances
• all initial subj/answ semi-learned
• future work:
• do top of each page to start learning, instead of start/end/start/end

Bell

25'

• first two landmarks stabile; last two stabile
• began third from end

note: maybe this is a reason to put letters on landmarks...although I know what I mean...
