New Year Progress Update

     Slow practice and hands separate practice has helped with the first 24 measures and I am now able to play at a tempo of 60 beats to the half note fairly well. Bars 13 - 24 still present a challenge. I have also begun working on the final passage of this A section, which is from bars 30 - 40. Once I get it to a reasonable tempo (it's very slow and halting right now), I will record a video, hopefully this week. I have memorized the slower middle section but cannot say that I can play it with great confidence yet.
     So until then, goodnight and thanks for visiting!

Oh, Kyle. It's terrible again! I don't know what to do. Have you had trouble with bar 7-8? I'm always having trouble with that idiotic bar! It's so messed up. Sometimes it's fine. Other times it's not. And I haven't done that much. If I get a video taken, you'll probably tell me that you expected me to have done more in 5 weeks!!! Ha Ha Ha!
