Today I reviewed the new notes I had learned yesterday. I now know 13 notes in all ( (in scientific pitch notation) A3, Bb3, B3, C4, C#4, D4, D#4, E4, F4, F#4, G4, G#4 and A4)! I spent a lot of time trying to memorize them so today’s practice is not great for spectators.
I am realizing more and more the importance of keeping your reed moist. I had a bit of a rocky start today, while yesterday I ran through practice like butter (...running through butter?). I think it’s because yesterday I had let the reed soak for so long before I started. I had to pause in the middle of practicing today because it had gotten too dry. I may try to soak it (in water) again tomorrow.
