Lower Sydenham, London
Meeting II
There are four of us today: Chris, Jacek, Pawel & Tywi.
10:33 - we begin with Sitting.
Tywi leads the Circle Work today.
The first one hour session is divided into three blocks:
- A left hand exercise where each finger is placed on a different string and fret, and the sound is produced just by applying the pressure with the left hand finger.
- Alternate Picking. We play 16th notes and skip:
* every 3rd note of a 4 notes sequence, then every 4th note of a 4 notes sequence.
* every 5th note of a 5 notes sequence.
* every 6th note of a 6 notes sequence.
- 3rd Primary on A & E strings in the Position of Readiness. Six C major notes alternated with empty strings. Mirrors. Then the same pattern played one position up. We alternate between these two positions.
A lot of material / exercises covered over the hour. Something to keep us going until the next meeting.
We complete at 12 o'clock, then Chris has to leave...
--- Break. Tea, coffee & biscuits ---
The second 80 minutes session:
Learn The Experiment in Terror parts. We have the complete piece now.
13:40 - we complete the meeting.
------
All in all, a very good meeting. We are moving forward...
