Sunday

After another gruelling 2 hour gym session I sat down at the piano and identified my main short term goals. These are:

Complete Grade 4 Jazz Piano - 3 Pieces, Scales, Sight Reading etc etc
Delve deeper into improvistation using the Jerry Bergonzi material.

I need to make sure that my practice includes all of these areas in rotation rather than focusing on one or two things at the expense of others.

Piano:

20 Minutes Grades 1-4 scales/arpeggios

20 Minutes Beginning to See the Light

Drums:

20 Minutes: Benny Greb Dynamic Workout and Sticking Workout

  2. When I spoke to my line manager he said that he was keen to get people to further their playing on their main instrument rather than lower grades on second instrument. As a result I'm thinking Performance Diploma.
