Interval Review:

Yesterday added descending 4th string - 5th string intervals.

Warm-up/Technique:

Finger-stretching exercise @ 100 bpm

String Walking exercise (Pumping Nylon pg. 37) with i,m eight @ 95 bpm
String Walking exercise with m, l with eight notes @ 75 bpm
l finger is numb for some reason - psychological perhaps, I'm feeling a bit at a loss as to how to continue with my overall guitar endeavor

String-Jumping 1st string to 5th string, 2nd string to 6th string @ 74 bpm (used in the little position jump etude I made up

Right-Hand Velocity (pg. 63) with sixteenth notes @ 105 bpm rest & free.
l, m @ 75 bpm rest & free


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


Repertoire:

Pica-Pica
Played measure 13 at 85 bpm.

Na Gafieira Do Vidigal
Part D first two measures.

Samba Caribe
Part A - jump between measures 12-13 at 60 bpm. Focused on only the right hand - the difficulty is switching the wrist position just slightly from playing a one-line lick on the high E string to playing a chord on the 2nd-5th strings. It's funny, this part's becoming more difficult the more I delve into it. Ah, the subtleties of the guitar.

Bart B measure 7 chord jump - practiced @ 65 bpm.
