I love practicing with Liz. We had so much fun and got a lot of new insights! The first time we practiced we showed each other different warm ups we found helpful. I loved working with Liz because she can hear things that I miss! It's so helpful to have someone listening outside your head - especially if that someone is Liz. She said she's been using some of my warm ups lately which is very gratifying!
Our next practice was a little less fun. We were both kind of stuck on this one exercise and couldn't figure out how to get it better. We were trying to do one of the activities from SOHH - going from piano to forte and back to piano on one long note. Although we tried a lot of different approaches, I didn't feel like I made much headway with it. Liz was making some progress though. But neither of us were getting what we wanted. So that was rough!
Still, I really enjoy working with someone else. I hope we continue this project all year! It helps me get comfortable in front of other people, and draws my attention to things I hadn't noticed.
