Anki:
Reviewed yesterday's cards and entered 5-6th string descending intervals. Let's see how this keeps up. Right now, I feel like I'm on top of this.

Warm-up/Technique:

Finger-stretching exercise @ 100 bpm

String Walking exercise
(Pumping Nylon pg. 37) with i,m quarter notes @ 115 bpm
String Walking exercise with m, l with quarter@ 75 bpm

Right-Hand Velocity (pg. 63) with sixteenth notes @ 95 bpm rest stroke
@90 bpm free stroke
l, m @ 70 bpm rest & free

Synchronization Exercise (Pumping Nylon pg. 65) with i,m sixteenth notes - @ 75 bpm.

Repertoire:

Estrellita

Many minor mistakes and rhythm problems. Played with metronome @ 40. Challenging, but a good exercise, especially to try to

Pica Pica
Practiced with metronome @ 55 bpm. Rhythm was way off in measure 29-31, so need to keep at that.

Samba Caribe
Practiced mental imaging. Section A Bar 3 - chord is difficult to nail down.

Sightreading:
Delcamp Vol II. p. 11 - tune with nice simple melody. My mistakes with hitting the notes with free stroke highlight problem (perhaps nails are still too short)
