Musical Performance

2 more sessions


Pain in right hand, technique is getting worse, need tuition before it is too late. I have now found a pianist named Kio who will take up the piano part Debussy's cello sonata.

Another session: about an hour and a half, things are back to normal, the Debussy and Beethoven are coming on great and the technique is getting better. Things are looking up. I did some scale practice on G major, work on 6 and 4 Popper Studies, Pieces work and things are sounding good.

Practice with James : 2 hours + things sound great, we are making a piece that goes along the lines of "Lost in a Factory." We made noises with Grolsch Bottles that made amazing sounds. We added these to the track we've been working on, inverted and retrograded the samples and then added the cello part. After we decided to harmonize this with another cello part. It's good as it makes u listen to yourself and what you've done. As I've done this, I can tell that sometimes I'm slightly sharp or that I need to be more precise with the rhythm or that I might want such and such happen instead of what really happened.
