Another lesson today
We covered the D Major scale, G Major scale, side keys for alternative C and A, I was itching to get those into my routine, now I've got two of the three going.
She was very pleased with my work on scales, note-twisters and my 'Fly me to the moon' which I went through soulfully and deliberately before kicking it up an octave and going through it again.
We did some very useful work on navigating a score sheet , I now know how to repeat 'section A' as far as it tells me to before moving on to 'section B', the meanings of some thick bars, rests and double rests, which has really helped - simple score sheets don't look quite so intimidating now.
We finished with a couple of passes of 'Georgia On My Mind'
She seemed really pleased with my progress since the last lesson so I'm definitely feeling upbeat at the mo
Edit: I forgot to mention F# and C# - it never occurred to me that there was a 'hands off' (fingers off?) note
