Watch me use Practice Loops to Progress Quickly (Practice Log)
Here’s my second practice log for Maureen’s Waltz! You can see the difference in my playing compared to the day before, when I did the first practice log.
Hello everyone! So I thought Iβd do another practice video for you. In my last practice log, I was practicing through the first 30 minutes of a new piece called Maureenβs Waltz (Catriona McKay). Iβve recorded every practice session with this piece, and itβs now two weeks later! I canβt show you everything but I picked one I thought would be the most useful for you to see, with interesting practice skills.
After that first day going through the piece, I practiced section A. Then after the recording, I went through section B. The day after I went through both sections. Section B is what Iβm going to be showing you today. In the video youβll also see me starting to go through section C, working on the fingering. I will also be showing you how I loop sections when practising β I focus quite a bit on that, because itβs a very effective way to practice!
Later on in the video, youβll notice I start getting tired, so I speak about when to stop and give yourself a break, and how to deal with new mistakes popping up in previous places youβve already gone through.
Doing this kind of video is still very new to me, so I hope you enjoy seeing my process and progress. Enjoy!
YES π. I was mesmerized watching you practice. I saw π lots of smooth technical fingering. Thank you for the opportunity to see clearly how itβs done.I This is like being in a master class! I will continue to view your practices. π€. Cheers, Eileen.
