December 14th Goals

My goal last time was to practice so I don't produce squeaking, or any other unnecessary sounds and noises to make a clear, nice sound that wont distract from the performance others could be listening to.

I think I am almost there. There is still a ton of progress I need to make to control my breath and volume, factors that could come into play with why I, or my clarinet makes noise other than music.

One new goal I could focus on is learning how to correctly play eighth notes, while still practicing on my breathing control. To meet this goal, the best thing I can do is to practice, practice, and practice to manage my control and breathing. I think i can make a lot of progress in around 2 weeks time. 

First Goal Reflection and Next Goal

The goal I have set last week was to keep a steady breath with the clarinet so I don't produce any squeaking sounds.

I believe that I am very close to completing my goal. I feel as if I have made a ton of progress since I made my goal around last week.

I think that I still need to work on this goal, as making squeaking, or other noises is still present, something that distracts from the performance.

To meet this goal, practicing will be the best thing to focus my mind, and how I breathe so none of these sounds are produced.
