## 🎯 Activities Practiced - **Technical Exercises** - Focus: Dmaj scale, Dmaj chords, Amaj scale. - **Repertoire** - Focus: Keyboard Musician, Mikrokosmos 1 - **Sight Reading** - Focus: ## 🏆 Notes & Observations - C through Dmaj scales with both hands, parallel, contrary. - With Dmaj scale contrary I have the same observation - contrary’s actually a bit challenging even though the finger numbering is the same for both hands, because each hand wants to go up on a black key at the same time. - Worked on Amaj scale. Interesting observation. Was struggling while not looking with LH only. Kept missing going from E to Fsharp, with my finger coming down on F instead. When doing hands together, not looking, it was easier. Almost like RH was leading LH. - Did Keyboard Musician technics. Should check with instructor in the strategy for these exercises. Prioritize accuracy or proprioception? Little of both? Dynamics? Observe hands for technique reasons? - Finding that with knowing scales I can actually randomly play melodies I actually enjoy. I’ve been writing them down, maybe I should whip em up in MuseScore. 100 random barely-a-compositions or something of that nature. Stark comparison from when I tried to compose songs as a kid. - Finished up playing some Mikrokosmos for fun and variety. It has some interesting rhythms. ## 📊 Quick Stats - **Duration** (min): 93
