We have finished one-third of our tasks! Congratulations for staying with us so far. Our ninth task is a practice task. It can be a lot of fun, but may also create some frustration for students who have a difficult time keeping a steady beat when they play. I would like students to practice their scales (older students), Dozen a Day (Silas) or Keyboard Kickoff piece (Owen, Ryleigh, Nora) with a drum track background. This is good practice to settle into a steady beat and play more accurately. I have chosen this video for its moderate tempo. I will be listening to them play their scale/Dozen a Day/Keyboard Kickoff piece with this track at their next lesson.

Good luck and may the winds be in your favor.

Our eighth task is a Performance task. Students should be prepared to perform a mini-recital of 3 pieces learned this studio year (since September) for your family. Please send me an email with the word "Done." When this has been accomplished. 

May the winds be in your favor.

Our seventh task is a listening task. On the back side of last week's job application for Chen Yi is a listening log. You can go to 

this site to listen to a piece written by Professor Chen. Fill out the listening log and return it next week. May the winds be in your favor.
