G flat

40 minutes! Once I got to Hexenritt, the chops work-out calmed down as I had to really work at getting the rhythm (which is actually quite nice and exciting sounding), and interpret the tenor clef. My chops definitely had a workout, though - I think they need a good 6-hour rest now.

My accomplishments in my 40 minutes:

Warmup. I think if I play up to my desired 1 1/2 hours on weekends, 1 hour on weekdays, I will make faster progress on getting my high notes. Also did G flat scale, 2 octaves, vibrato practice on the scale.

Petite Waltz top part. Worked quite a bit on this, finished by playing it through and circling the parts that I need to work on.

Hexenritt. Just made it through the first two and a half lines, but it is an important part and I worked hard on it. When I come back, I need to start with this.

Now, off to study and clean house ... it is raining dreadfully, which is keeping me in.
