I have been working on #3 with the limited practice time.
- Things you found easy: The slurs and barres presented no real problems and the notes and rhythms are fairly straightforward.
- Things you found difficult: The chords and intervals are easy enough to play but have been a challenge for me to get in my ears. The sounds are quite different from most of what I've played before as are the progressions.
I'm glad to be working on this because I need the aural challenge.

Hello everybody! Still working on 4 and 5. Always finding something to improve and delay my recording. Today in particular silencing the C in bars 8, 9, 10. Improving what I am doing wrong in bars 7, bar 11. I hope I can make more recordings than the one and only of no 3. Today I started practicing in a better way, feeling inspired by yesterday class. Number 5 is read, measured and feels comfortable. Now I have to work more on it. I think I am learning a lot with these studies.
