Re the 40P challenge… I think I posted somewhere that I was going back and forth about whether I’d do the 40P challenge or do a sightreading challenge…
Well, so far I’m having a hard time with the pieces I’ve chosen. Not because they’re too hard, but because I don’t like them enough to want to play them more than once. 😅 So all the pieces I’ve played have ended up as sightreading pieces that I’ve worked on in one practice session and then not returned to for the next practice session.
I’ve sort of been assuming that once I find a piece I like a little more, I’ll work on it over a few practice sessions before moving on, but I’ve yet to find that piece. 🤪
Ah well, the sightreading practice is great though.
Right now, I’m sort of thinking maybe I’ll sightread through the book I’m using right now and then pick something different and shift to a more 40P style approach.
This Wednesday, I’ll have my first lesson after winter break, so I plan to talk to my teacher about this again.
