Piano Progress 3: Learning the key of F# Minor

Hello everyone,

Last week, my goals were the following:

1. Practice and record myself play “Adagio in A Major”
2. Review the Key of F# Minor

Over the past week, I managed to complete these goals. I have shared a link below of me playing “An Adagio in A Major”. For those of you who are struggling to pick up the piano, I highly suggest picking up Alfred’s Basic Adult All-in-One Course. Slowly but surely, this book series has helped me how to play the piano.

In the next week, I hope to:

1. Learn and record myself playing “Blue Rondo”
2. Practice the F#Minor scale until I get comfortable.

On another note, if you grew up watching the HSM series, like me, you should really watch HSMTMTS. I’m currently listening to the soundtrack on Spotify. Enjoy.

Drum Progress 7: Styles

Hello everyone, Last week, I went through the "Independence" section of Level 2 in the Drumeo method. I must say that this has been my favorite section thus far. I was able to learn different beats that can be used whenever I jam to different soundtracks. I also enjoyed it because it was challenging learning the beats for left and right leg independence. I truly feel like this section has made me a better drummer. As for the 10-minute daily challenge, here are my numbers for each interval: 1 minute          155 BPM 2 minute          150 BPM 3 minute          145 BPM 4 minute          140 BPM I've kept these tempos for a couple days because I want to get more comfortable at each tempo. I can play the 1 minute interval at 155 BPM, but if I don't completely concentrate, then I lose track and tempo.  I want to be able to play this tempo without having to concentrate too much. ...

Drum Progress 1: Drumeo Method Level 1

Hello everyone, When I first got the drums earlier last year, I decided to purchase the Beginner Drummer Book offered by Drumeo. Since I was inconsistent with my practice on the drums, I only managed to get up to chapter 5 or 6 in this book. Even after following these chapter, I felt like I didn't really have a direction in my learning, and it was very frustrating. To improve my practice consistency and give myself a direction in learning, I decided to invest in a Drumeo Edge subscription. My goal in the next couple weeks is the following: 1. Complete the Drumeo Method Level 1 Lesson 2. Record Myself Playing the Two Songs I will learn in this lesson. Cheers.

Piano Progress 7: "The Tap-Dancer" and the Eb Major Scales

Hello everyone, In my last Piano Progress post, I made goals to: 1. Learn and record myself playing "Jazz Ostinato in C# Minor". 2. Learn how to play "The Tap-Dancer" I was able to learn how to learn "Jazz Ostinato in C# Minor" last week, but I haven't made the time to record myself playing it. Overall, once I got comfortable with the left hand pattern, this song wasn't too difficult. Once I record myself playing this song, I'll update this post to include the link to my YouTube channel. As for "The Tap-Dancer", I must admit that I have not learned this song yet. Looking at the sheet music, which is in F major or D minor, there are a lot of triplets in the first measure. I think this also has some dotted eighth notes and the chromatic scale at the beginning and the end of the piece.  For this week, realistically, my goals will be similar to last week: 1. Record myself playing "Jazz Ostinato in C# Minor" 2. Lear...
