Monday 11/17

60 Minutes

Began with basic primary work in both hands, again focusing on the wrists and lightness of touch.

I then tackled counting on "Batrachomyomachy" and wound up working out fingerings for various places in the piece. Back on track, I played it with the aim of counting and using the fingerings I had found.

The sevens will require special attention, because counting downbeats feels weird when there's a downbeat left out on three.

Closing with some work with G Major arpeggios in the first position.
