Warm-up/Technique:
String Walking exercise (Pumping Nylon pg. 37) with i,m eight notes @ 85 bpm
String Walking exercise with l quarter notes @ 85 bpm
Right-Hand Velocity (Pumping Nylon pg. 63) with i,m sixteenth notes @ 105 bpm
Same with l, m with sixteenths @ 80 bpm
Repertoire:
Pica Pica
Recorded with silent metronome @ 80 bpm. Listening back, it became obvious that I didn't practice imaging ahead at slow tempos enough. When I played it with the mic on at this tempo, I could feel the beginnings of the anxiety that I feel during performances. That lack of confidence through which you just wish that you'll hit the right notes. Therefore, I need to just focus on practicing this piece at slower tempos, imagining ahead and really feeling it.
