Goals

For now, we will use this blog just for me to help you focus your summer goals.

Here are the pieces we discussed:

Cavallini Caprices
Mozart Concerto
Poulenc Sonata
Saint-Saens Sonata

Do you need to order any of these? What have you been working on?

General thoughts: hope you can get a good amount of practice time this summer. More important, think about HOW you practice. Please use the comments feature to give me a report on what you are doing, when you are ready. Note: you will probably have to get a "google account" before you can save your comments.

Purpose

Hi Gray! This blog will give us: (1) a new way to communicate about your clarinet work, and (2) an online record of your weekly lessons. We will also use this blog to keep your large-scale goals well-expressed and in focus. I am technically the writer of the blog, but you can communicate through comments, but only you have access, so your information, while published by google in some corner of the Web, is not going to be read by just anybody. I will try to maintain my own blog, which will be a public forum: http://anthotaylo.blogspot.com.
