Copies of scores

Hey guys!

Very glad to see that our Bach Double Concerto is now much, much better (although I apologize for always making mistakes, shameful of me I know) and hoping this streak will last until the concert.

Anna, I need a huge favour from you. I'm holding off the breaking of the lock until Monday in case Jeff comes back with my keys, so until then, could you scan Walzer and Double Concerto for me and post it here? It would be a great help so that I can fix up my Walzer timings and some things I need to fix for Bach's Double Concerto. I'd be really grateful if you did.

Thanks, and have a great weekend. Don't forget to practice! :)

Review on Practice Session 1

This was an interesting enough practice session, seeing that the total actual 'practice' time amounted to maybe 10 or 15 minutes. Unfortunately, it was only us three that met up, the other two head health-related issues. I'm sure we all had fun though, us the weird JAR trio.

What did we practice? Mostly the tinkly-twinkly part in Tchaikovsky's Waltz, which, I have to say, we get better at by the day. Not much else.

We definitely should do this at least once a week, even if it's just scheming about taking over the world, one instrument at a time... (:

ps.: And we drew a gigantic alto clef onto the whiteboard! That counts for something!
