Week 3 Monday

Hi, I've decided to start categorizing practice days by weeks. Friday completed day 10. Today is 3 days shy of the 3 week period. I am rounding up and calling today week 3.

Last week, I spoke with Chris from the Pittsburgh Opera. I will be auditioning in October! I need to figure out what to prepare for that.

Besides playing, the "day job" aspect of things is going pretty well. I have an interview lined up for this Wednesday at Cal U PA for a possible GA position. This is a pretty big deal because if I got this, it would mean possibly going to school to get EL ED certification for free.

Session 1
Warm-up
Farkas Ex 1-improving. Continue to strive for accuracy in hitting each note in the center of the pitch and keeping the line very legato.

Ex 2-able to play at speed, which was not the case last week. Notes are choppy and not smooth.

Ex 3- play slowly with met.

(Lips are getting stronger day by day. I have had no problems so far, concerning lip pain.)
