Performance

Next 2 sessions : total time practicing = about 3 and 1/2 hours

Still no word from Robin Michaels but the practice keeps on. Pieces that I have been practicing are still the same as always. The Debussy is becoming ever more fluent as I am now;  making sure that the bow is very close to the bridge when playing those harmonics (even though the sections where that happen is marked piano)

The Beethoven is going also really well, the fast semi quavers at the end are really becoming precise, powerful and audible. An area that is still not by any means perfect is the section just before the end, however, I am making head way with it. The problem with it is that there is nothing special about the section, it is as if it is just put in there to fill the gap between section. I am finding motivation to make the section work though, to make it stern and dynamically ranged.

Boccherini is just technically difficult. It is sounding in tune and in time though. All i need is the stamina to get through the piece and make to the end without really struggling.

Chambre Music : Is going well, all I need to do is be as independent as possible with my counting and make sure that the flurries are well practiced.

The Instrumentalists : Is all fine and dandy.

Improvisation : James and I made a recording for the improvisation homework that was absolutely amazing. We performed it the next day and it was totally different (as in shit.) That took roughly 3 hours.
