I played at lunch yesterday, just a little bit of Peter and the Wolf, and then scales just a bit in the evening. In Peter and the Wolf, I am doubling on the wolf for 2nd horn, and there is one little part that I can't get into my head. It goes from A flat to F# to G ... which chromatically at least to this ear, is just weird. I played it on the keyboard yesterday, could sing it with the keyboard, but I can't get it into my head.
So I need to think about singing this straight. A flat is G#, so the issue is getting a sound that is G#, F#, G. So if you were going to get the right scale in your head, wouldn't it be working with the scale in the key of A. Three sharps.
But no. Because that leaves out G natural. I need to think about this.
Oh, and I am doing a meditation program this weekend, so the "I need to think about this" makes me smile. HA HA HA.
