Day 12 of

This song as been in my ear for the past few months because of work so here is me playing it for fun after my warmup. I’m also thinking about making an arrangement of this song. Would y’all be interested in hearing the finished product?

Anyways, I didn’t actually today as much as I only had time for a warm up before my rehearsal this evening.

See you all tomorrow. Oh and btw, please share any suggestions on what I can do to improve my playing! I’m always open to suggestions and feedback.

Day 11 of

I had an amazing sold out concert with . So much fun but a lot of playing today. Good news is that I was able to get an hour practice session in after so that’s good. Anyways, here is me attempting a concerto that I’ve been scared of for almost 10 years now(I’ve been playing for that long omg) Hummel. This is a long term project for me and isn’t what I plan on doing on my future recital but possibly for auditions for music school! So here it is in its current form. I flubbed the a note at the end but I can live with it. I’ll fix it later.

Anyways see you all tomorrow.

Day 10!! Of

More reading of possible recital music!!!

Day 8 of

Didn’t practice much of anything today. Just played my fundamentals and sightread some music. See y’all tomorrow

Day 8 of

Just a little sight reading.

Give it up for day 7!!

Short video today. A short excerpt from Colored Stones. It’s just a pretty piece and I’m hoping to preform the whole thing for a recital I’m planning. Just sight reading for excuse any bumps. Anyway, see you guys soon.

Day 6! Give it up for day six!

I’m so tired. I had work (unexpectedly) and this rehearsal so I’m quite exhausted as I’m writing this. Also, I barely had time for technical work but it is what is sometimes. Hopefully tomorrow is a bit better in that regard. Anyways, I have a lovely concert with on Sunday and I’m so excited. They are some of my favourite musicians that I currently work with. The music we are playing is so much fun. If you are in the Toronto area, you should really check us out! It’s going to be a fun concert. Anyways, see you all soon(hopefully tomorrow)

(I gotta fix my camera. It’s really not doing me any favours)

Today is day 5. Not much practice was done today but I did play a concert! Here is a little bit from it :). See you tomorrow

Day 4!!!

Long time no see again! I had to take a bit of a pause due to some unforeseen circumstances/events. Anyways, we are back and ready to work! Had an okay session today. I have a lot of performances over the next few weeks. So I gotta get cracking with everything.

Day 3 of

Transitioning from a night shift is making it impossible to be super consistent with videos but I promise I have practicing. Even if for 30 minutes each day(for now)

Here is an exercise that I feel I’m thinking about including in my warmup. Still gotta work on fluidity through the notes and the cracks.

Also! constructive criticism is always allowed! Share anything you got! I do listen back to try can catch things but I don’t always hear what’s happening. Always see y’all soon!

Day 2 of

Yeah… this isn’t happening every single day. I’ll try to be as consistent as possible, but life lol.
Anyways, I’m still taking things slow and getting back into playing shape, so why not some Milde? This is pretty rough, but it’s getting the air and fingers moving. I’ll continue to work on it, but this is okay for a first day back.

Anyways, see y’all hopefully tomorrow 🙂

Happy New Year! Long time no see 🎉
I’m starting this practice challenge again because… well, I need to practice and keep myself accountable. I hope you’ll follow along as I work on improving my bassoon skills.

Today wasn’t much—just a few scales to get reacquainted with the bassoon after a long Christmas break. It’ll probably take a week or two to really get back into the groove, but we’re getting there

Time practiced: 30 minutes
