music practice one week 7

i think in this practice i was doing not so good with the stroking and the tone is abit off. i was trying my best to do better from my previous practices. this shows i have to practice more. i think i need to work more on the double strings.

week 7- how is my progress playing my own 12 bar blues

My challenges and how often i practice

I think my progress in playing my own 12 bar blues is good and mostly my challenge is getting the time to practice with my tight schedule i have limited time to practice. Even though i have difficulty finding time, i still do my best and i get some time 5 minutes or maybe 10 minutes i will practice at home.

this week Mr. Sadrahk has been helping me out with my practice on the song and he has been telling me about the placement of the fingers if it is in different scales and he has been coaching me regarding the timing of my song.

violin practice

in this song i was practicing my 12 bar blues. i think i didn't do as good here as i did in instrument class but i think mr. Sadrahk"s encouragement motivated me to do better.
in this video i was playing fly me to the moon. i think during this practice video i didn't do very good because its been sometime i played this song. nevertheless i think i could have done better.
in this video i was doing scales and i think i did well and i think i was able to avoid double strings when i am playing this.
in this video i was doing double double scales. i think while doing the double double, i didn't do as well because it is definitely harder to avoid double strings while doing double double.
in this video i was playing a song from the book. i have been playing this song for a long time. i haven't practiced this song for sometime that is why i wasn't that good in this video.
in this video i was again doing a a song from the book. the only difference from the version in the book is that this is double double.
in this video i am practicing the fly me to the moon song and i think i didn't do as well as i could have. in this video i was doing double strings and this is bad i am trying to get the stroking better.



in this video i think i didn't do that well because i am stopping a lot and i thing that i am doing double strings. but nevertheless this was still my first practice.

how does my understandingh of jazz develop

this week i did well and i believe that i was satisfied with my performance. on monday i was happy because i played with a group of people who played different types of instruments. i felt like in a real orchestra. i am really happy to be able to do that.

i think i did well today today we had a rest and we were really tired after our daily activity so we just did some scales.

how is my proggress in leanring jazz

i think i am learning more and more about jazz. i believe that u know the good jazz players, people who are successful in terms of being a concert player (benny goodman and kenny g). i think it is easier for me to write the essay with the newly aquired knowledge i have about jazz.

today i performed my song and i think i did well i still have to prectice much more to get greater results.

how do i learn jazz

i think i learned jazz quite well with the assessment task mr herry gave to us. i think we understood jazz better this way thanks to his assessment.

today i had fingering exercises. i think i can perform beter with these fingering exercises.

is music a language?

i think music is definately a language due to the reason that every country have different language but music can be undeerstood by all. therefore i think music is a UNIVERSAL language.

I studies my song which is number 18. i believe i did well but i can still improve on my fingering.
