I had learned a lot of my Debussy prelude the other day, so wanted to have a lesson to make sure I had learned it accurately, and to learn more.
She said she was busy, but should be able to see me in the morning. So I had a lesson at 8:00.
We went over what I learned myself, and it was mostly accurate. There were a few things that needed fixed here and there, especially with staccatos and such since the notation I was using to learn it didn’t mark the staccatos, but overall it was pretty accurate.
I’m not sure exactly which measure I got up to, but it was around 41 or 42 probably. It was right after those Ab’s repeated.
We continued on though, well into the third page. I got through one of my favorite parts at measure 58 where it says quasi tambour or something like that.
Nothing was really very difficult, nor hard to memorize, so I was happy about that.
I’m not sure whether I’ll learn more this weekend or not. Either way, I have another lesson on Monday.
