Last Month!

This is the last month for this goal. This month I am doing 5 pieces to get up to the number 50. I have been doing four per month which only totals to 48 pieces so I did an extra one a few months back and now I am doing an extra one this month. The two Debussy pieces I have picked are easier and shorter so it should work out well. This month's pieces are: Mozart K 394 the Fugue (from Prelude and Fugue in C) -- I did the prelude a while back. Debussy Jimbo's Lullaby and La fille aux cheveux de lin. Bach Sinfonia #13 and Rachmaninoff Prelude in G sharp minor. I have learned a lot of pieces this year. I have made an improvement in my confidence and subtlety. I don't think there is a huge change but definitely some improvement. I am making emotional progress, which was my original intent. It is hard to say exactly what the changes are.

I am thinking of studying Jazz next year. I have been improvising and writing music since I was 10. I took 10 Jazz lessons at USU. I also went through the 5 Jazz method books from the library twice. I need to figure out what is a good goal to do that is not too time consuming so as to distract me from my real life!! Maybe Samba month and Calypso month and Ragtime month etc? I need some more ideas to make it a little more concrete.
