Here’s what we did:

• Warmup – scales , Bb, Eb, F, Ab – scale in fourths
• Worked the scale in a row- timing, and accuracy – develop as a group
• Balance builder #10
• NEW: Articulation Studies #118 – look through silently 30 sec, play through 30 sec. then play as a group.
• Isolate ONE bar, and play it over and over again.
• 20 min Jazz sectional in the hall – went well

We acquired two co-op students in our class, one is learning a second instrument (trombone) and helping Karn.  The other is helping others and taking up conducting.

Learning goals for today:

•  increase fluency on scales
• pattern recognition in new pieces and sight reading
• Introduction of playing piece
• rehearse either jazz pieces or #118
