Practice Piano
Star this Commitment
Week 10 of 10
SigmaX commits to:
Practice reading music on the piano and/or scales & other exercises twice a week for 30 minutes. In particular, I'm working on Rachmaninoff's Prelude in C#m and Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.
The point is to learn "proper" piano. Time spent composing or playing from memory doesn't count. That's too easy.

Yeah, the big church here on campus has a couple of beautiful grand pianos. But you have to get special permission to play them (something about having to tune them more often if they're played too much). I've been kicked out before. After finals and graduation I may try and get permission. I'm friends with the music director's son. It's just annoying to have to set up an appointment for a part of my life that's so spontaneous. |

| Broaden your scope. I found schools and churches good resources as well. Maybe not as fancy and there often isn't an audience to fluff the ego but the instruments are sitting unused a large part of the time and often they are willing. | |

| Week 10: Practiced Rach several times during the week, but didn't learn anything new. It's decaying for lack of a real piano. It doesn't work on my keyboard. I need consistent access to a real piano desperately. | |

| Week 9: Practiced at home several times through Rach, and played *real* piano's at people's houses twice this week :-). I can't play it on my keyboard. Some of the rythm is waaay easier with heavy keys. | |
