Practice guidance 18th March 2020
Hello everyone
Hope
you’re all well and healthy! Have a look at the quick movement of the
Mealor tonight (the ooooo one, just remember that nice ah vowel with oh
shape, and not ü). Denise has provided some fantastic midi files you can
use to help with learning!!
...
Can I recommend practising the Bingham with a metronome as the hardest thing is keeping the pulse going!
...
If you have some time, find a spot in the Weelkes where you know you are weakest and really try and nail the tuning. Particular places with lots of accidentals!
There’s also a lovely recording of the weelkes to listen to on Spotify
Listen for the sense of line and the big 2 in a bar beat they make.
Also
for those interested in what I was on about last week about
timelessness in harmony with the Bingham, here is a link to Bach St
Matthew opening
Hopefully those links work
Stay healthy!
Thanks
Derrick
