I played my clarinet for about 15 minutes. I played through both Rumble and Light Eternal, looking for spots that I still have trouble with. In Rumble I worked on 41 to 62 to see if I could bring back its excitement, and I worked on bars 187 to 194 for fingering and notes, because I tend to squeak there. I also worked on the scale at the end, to have it memorized. In Light Eternal I worked on bars 8-24 to cement it into my brain. I seem to be able to play it fine at home, but not at school. I also worked on bars 50 to 68 for the same reason. I'm still having problems right before bar 147 in the key change zone. There is a lot of jumping around and accidentals there.
I think most of my troubles in band in this piece is because I do not keep track of counting very well. I should pay more attention :) Its hard to practice that at home though.
