how to
Open the metronome.
Dragonhunter
Concert speed = 112 bpm
Write down 3 rehearsal numbers (the ones in boxes). These are your "chunks". So if you pick "7", your chunk is 7-13 because 13 is the box after 7.
Play the first chunk with metronome at a comfortable speed (maybe 80ish).
Repeat with the metronome 4-6 clicks faster.
Repeat, adding clicks to the metronome, until you're close to 112.
Repeat the above with the other 2 chunks you chose.
Ring of Fire
Concert speed = 120 bpm
Write down 3 rehearsal numbers for your chunks in this piece.
Play the first chunk with metronome at a comfortable speed (maybe 90ish).
Repeat with the metronome 4-6 clicks faster.
Repeat, adding clicks to the metronome, until you're close to 120.
Repeat the above with the other 2 chunks you chose.
Reflect on your process!
Were you able to play the correct speed with the metronome?
How did it feel slowly speeding up?
Are there other "chunks" you'd like to work on before moving on?
