Sightreading
I really want to able to sightread, as I previously bitched about. It seems as though all those piano lessons all that time ago didn’t teach me much that stuck in my head, except for playing Strawberry Fields. That still works pretty good. It has chords and stuff and everything.
The really frustrating thing is not being able to reliably jump between C’s without looking at the keyboard, they’re almost always off by one note, and I’m steadfastly refusing to look down, to try and force my hands into being smart.
The Bartok string quartets are making more sense, they sound like they’re gonna be good when my head processes them through enough. Okay, off to the first hockey match of the new year now. Kick arse!
