This evening I warmed up with my chromatic scales. I sometimes still slip up on them, but overall I have it completely down. I would need to review before I play them for the exam tomorrow. I then went on to my scale and played it through about 5 times, over and over again to solidify it. I also played through the study number 5 to learn the slurs and the rhythms perfectly. It took about 5 or 6 times running through with stopping to work on the bars I messed up on to get it perfect. I also played it though one last time to make sure I have got it down for tomorrow. I ended off by playing through the line on p.30 twice or three times with a little break in the middle.
Later, I visited my friends house and helped her with her clarinet (Tamara in grade 9). I played some technique stuff there like long notes, jumping using the register key, and staccatos. I also played through my chromatic scales twice from memory, and got it absolutely perfect the second time through. I think I should run through the pieces again tomorrow morning, and practice playing them as if I was in an exam.
