Pondering On Which Fingers To Use With This Passage. One Idea Is To Do A Slur With The Fourth Finger.
Pondering on which fingers to use with this passage. One idea is to do a slur with the fourth finger. The sections idea is to slur with the first. I think I like slurring with 4 better, but I’m going to listen to this recording to help determine what I like better.

Trying to get this movement up to speed.

Starting this variation has been one of the hardest things. P and I on the same string is the hardest thing about, so I’ve experimented with just playing with P alone, and sometimes just P and I, with no A finger.

Changing things up a bit. In my late twenties I discovered a great love for film music. In particular I found that music written for horror movies was something that I liked the most. I am playing along with film music written by the great Harry Manfredini.
It’s very important to play along with recordings by ear. I have never seen the score for this film music. This is an purely an aural exercise for me.

Memory practice/challenge. Video 1
Just trying pay through the piece without stopping, without fixing buzz notes and other things. As long as it sounds halfway decent. Only focusing on the order and sections of the piece. If it’s all pretty much in order, that is the goal.

Trying out some left-hand ideas in Agustí Grau’s Corranda.

Strings are old. Nails also need to be changed. I have no thumb nail.
This is the hardest variation. I put quite a bit of time into it before recording it this evening. It’s hard.

Trying a technique that I have never used in a performance. Plucking the strings with the back of the nails. It’s a possible solution to playing this variation up to speed with greater ease. If I were to pluck all of the strings normally, my right hand would bounce around a lot more.

Feeling better about this variation tonight. I think one of my problems last night was the strings were old. My nails were in bad shape too. I changed my nails today and feel better about my tone from them as well.

Working on the first variation of Sor’s variations on La Folias.
Just in case you wonder about my shirt in this video and the last one, my shirt was washed. Today. A friend let me go to get house use her washer and dryer. I still don’t have hot water (as a result of continued recovery efforts brought on by Hurricane Michael which damaged my home over a year ago). My wardrobe is kinda limited for now.
