Wow, so, somehow I forgot to actually post this earlier, so before it gets any further, here goes…
Music 30/30 – Day 7
I feel like tonight’s piano practice went really well. I’m not going to get any cool points for saying that I nailed 100% on Hot Cross Buns, but that’s a thing that happened, so I’ll report it anyway. I decided to spend a little bit of my piano practice time working on the ‘classic’ starting piano pieces that come built into Synthesia. They are exceptionally easy at this point, but I’m sure they will ramp up quickly enough, and it seems like this is the sort of thing you generally start playing when you first learn, so why not. Of course I also made some progress on my regular practice pieces, so I feel like that’s going rather well.
On the music theory side of things, I spent some time today learning about modes, how they are formed, named, used, etc. It’s pretty neat stuff, honestly.
