Round 2 of playing today did not quite have the perfect character of my earliest practice. OK, fine, be that way. ;)
I worked on the student symphony piece, it's the Bassoon I part for Beethoven's piano concerto. I picked up at measure 36 and played to measure 101. Need to pick up there the next time I work on this. I want to play through the whole thing to make sure I can do it. Of course I am playing it much slower than it will go. It will be a total workout at the called-for Allegro con brio. It's interesting so far.
I worked through the first movement of the Shostakovich. This is my second time through this piece.
Then I wanted some sweetness, so I played a couple of my easy solos for trombone, Liebenstraum and Bist du bei mir. Worked a little on Mendelssohn's On Wings of Song, but I don't have that in my head. I'll see if I can figure that out on Smart Music or YouTube.
