Mike - How are you?
Here's what I'm doing to get ready for the Rach 3:
It's all about outlining it - in terms of Tonality.
I'm going through and making note of what Key each section is in.
Then I practice that Scale - before tackling each section.
That Is How I'm Gonna Do It - All The Way Through - first.
What do you think - Mike?
I only spend about 10 mintes at a time - several times a day - if I can.
That works for me - for now.
Mike - the Rach 3 is Really hard - but the Melody - the main theme - is soooo Beautiful -
and haunting
And you have to learn it all if you want to play this beautiful Melody - That's The Rule - Mike.
