Improvements I made:

  • (Whatever) Right hand swing for the first few lines and the ending
  • (Whatever) Connecting the left hand for the first few lines
  • D minor scale (one octave)
  • (7th street blue’s) rhythm

Improvements I need:

  • (7th street blue) (counting the last bar or each lines rhythm (triplet))
  • (Whatever) middle section (play more swings and try to play as a musical sentence) bar
  • (Whatever) think of each notes as a sentence play the note alternating between less pressure and more pressure.
  • (Whatever) left hand bar 13 - 17 for (bar 13) instead of jumping around all over, stretch your hands so it keeps the distictive hand shape.
  • (Whatever) (optional) try play the piece with the musical signs
  • (Hava Nagila) Instead of playing the piece as 4/4 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + play it as 2/4 1 + 2 +

“Changed from Habanera to Scaraborough Fair” Pieces for this week:

  • Whatever
  • Key signatures of relative majors and minor keys
  • Hava Nagila page 97
  • rev: 7th blue st
  • Scales: D Harmonic Minor Scale
  • Campbells Are Coming (p.g 126)
  • Scarborough Fair (p.g )

Learnt:

  • Key signatures that share the same minor and Majors
  • Counting in 2/4
  • If you have a sharp key: the major is up a 2nd and from the major go down a third for the minor. E.g F # = G major, E minor
  • If you have a flat key: check the second to last flat to find the Major then go down a 4th from the Major to get the minor.
