scales practice 7 months ago

Starting on scales, where I’m weak. Just ran through all major scales starting on white keys, one octave, both hands parallel motion an octave apart. Each scale 10 times.

Will build on this, of course.



New strategy for RPM '10 7 months ago

Buff up my keyboarding until I can do credible improv. Then 10 4-minute improvs for the RPM album in Feb.



Just realized why I haven't played my piano in years 12 months ago

I had to stop when I had kids. If they’re awake, I can’t play because they interfere. If they’re asleep I can’t play because it will wake them up.

I managed a little bit the other day (chasing them away every now and then, and letting them play every so often.) I didn’t realize how much I missed it. The 88-key hammer-weighted electronic is nice, but just not the same.
