Hi Larks,
Today we looked at our G major scale and arpeggio 2 octaves. G major scales are going well... if you would like to push yourself with this then add slurs, 2 notes per bow.
We worked out or G arpeggio 2 octaves like this:
Do | Mi | So | Do' | Mi' | So' | Do'' |
G | B | D | G | B | D | G |
0 | 2 | 0 | 3 | 1 | 3 | 2 |
We tried to remember the finger numbers like a telephone number... 020 313 2
(0g high2g 0d 3d 1a 3d low2e)
If that is going well then practise going up and down.
Please practice all of Sweet Dreams so you can play it all very confidently for next week. Remember that is isn't just a straight scale, you do need to watch the music to look out for the different moments!
For those of you who have worked on John Ryan's Polka, please kep practising this. I'll hear this from everyone before the end of term.
Please keep practising Rocky Mountain for ensemble too.
