July 2009 goals
1. Use July and August as space to work on my technique.
2. Be very careful about what I agree to play, so I don't get into another overcommitment situation.
3. Work on my legato, clean starts and ends of notes, playing beautifully, playing with dynamics.
4. Impress Jack when I have my next lesson. :)

Work on my low notes.
Improve my tonguing. Clean tonguing. Get away from this smearing between notes.

February 2009 goals
In a word, slow it down and get it right.
Not too different from January. Slow it down and get it right. I will not play perfectly by the time I die, so let's just try to play well, now.

January 2009 goals
Simple goal this month: To play everything as well and as beautifully as possible. Slow things down in practice in order to play them well.
Remember that the point of the instrument is to sound beautiful. So, do it.
