Hello Ewen and Gael,

Here are some practice ideas from Jo to keep you going until we see you again on Saturday!

Keep warming up with the vomit slides
A--C.    1--1
A--C#.   1--2
A--D.      1--4.  And no 3rd  position 
 
Excellent work on Blue Blazes last week. Lots of new skills learnt!!
 
Let's jump a few pages and get a really good tune, No 6 Reel.
Rhythm and notes are pretty simple, but let's prepare first:
 
1)Speak the rhythm
 
2)Say the name notes( in rhythm?)
 
3)Challenge! Can you work out the solfege?
I'll start you off.....  Open D = doh
  
s. ? s
 
s,  l,  l, ?.........etc
 
4)NOW.... play.  .. aim for a really steady pulse and keep going , even if you make a mistake.
 
We will have some fun with it next week!
 
Jo
