Life gets in the way. We are still unpacking from our move, and we are organizing my parents' affairs and home for sale now that they are in care. Practice was/is in the ditch. But... Today I got an hour in. 1. Rick Dior warmup on snare drum. 2. One snare drum etude to 80BPM. This is an improvement. A few months ago, I could get them to 70 BPM in the same brief time. 3. I worked on my triplets on the bass drum. By keeping relaxed I was able to hear improvement. 4. Jazz warmup for mallets: 12, 2 octave major scales, 60 broken jazz chords in 1st inversion. 5. Played "Ain't Misbehavin' in a number of keys. 5. Rootless 4 note voicings in a few minor keys. 6. Reviewed a few standards. |
