HOLY CARP!!!

I'm happy if I'm playing it. Not necessarily a piece, but just playing it. I had been neglecting my practicing in July (kids' baseball) so I turned it up high the past few weeks to be ready for our group "Master" class last night. It's just so much fun to practice. I even have fun doing the detail work (i.e. playing the left hand arpeggios and noticing what notes change from one measure to the next). Just sayin'. |

I've had a break for a few weeks from the cello. My new teacher is very much into drills, speed, and correcting me while I'm playing. I strained a muscle in my hand after repeated extension exercises. It's just now feeling better, and she emailed me saying she's stopping private lessons altogether and recommended her colleague in the symphony for my lessons. IT is teasing me that my few lessons with her did her in. Well, we'll see how the new guy is -- I better get ready in case he's super tough. I miss my old teacher. |

Let us know how it goes with the new teacher. One of the biggest bonuses of my teacher is that he has a little group of adult students and we get together and play for each other at each others' houses. It's a lot of fun. We mercilessly tease each other about everything but our piano playing. |
