Thoughts:
Reviewed Arigato sequence. As well as a couple of the verses.

Anki:

Reviewed yesterday's cards (chord sequence deck also). Everything's becoming jumbled up in my brain (the descending intervals are particularly hard), so didn't add new cards

Warm-up/Technique:
Finger-stretching exercise @ 100 bpm

String Walking exercise
(Pumping Nylon pg. 37) with i,m quarter notes @ 160 bpm
String Walking exercise with m, l with quarter@ 120 bpm

Right-Hand Velocity (pg. 63) with sixteenth notes @ 105 bpm rest & free YEAH!
l, m @ 90 bpm rest & free

Synchronization Exercise (Pumping Nylon pg. 65) with i,m sixteenth notes - @ 95 bpm rest


Repertoire:

Samba Caribe
Practiced @ 50bpm
Lots of mistakes all over the place. Can't concentrate so well.

Part B - thumbnail is still too short, the thumb not getting the bass notes at all today for some reason

Estrellita
Good feel.

Pica Pica
Once again, hard to play at 75 bpm - feels too slow.

My target concert speed is 85 bpm.

Na Gafieira Do Vidigal
Transcribed Section B measures 1-8. So enjoyable! Really got the groove of the piece.
