Practice Blog #7 - Reflection

For my second practice blog, I worked on the second movement of Three Folk Miniatures. This is the slow, flowing movement of the piece and I think I showed that. I did a good job of demonstrating the style in this movement, as well as accurate notes and correct articulation. I need to work on better breath control and phrasing, especially during a slow part like this, and intonation. Some of the low notes sometimes dip a little flat, which I need to work on. Also, because of the long, slower notes, I have a chance to practice my vibrato, which is very important in slow parts of this piece. I need to work on making it more noticeable, because I can hear it but it does not translate across the audience.
