Genius Hour with Gabriel

We did nothing. All I could do is wait for Ruby to tune her cello. Hopefully next week we can make progress.

5 minutes of practice. What else to say? Video evidence hopefully next week, if Ruby remembers to bring her bow.

Since Ruby didn’t bring her cello bow, we were unable to record a video, but we managed to get some practice done. Other than that, nothing new today. We did find out about some 16th notes in the 3rd and 4th pages, might be interesting.

Farewell, Rachel. We lost a violin. On the bright side, however, Rachel was the only one in our group to have experience playing with other instruments. Now we plan on simply playing a duet together instead of writing a whole new piece. I had made progress on the piece, but with this change of plans, we might as well scrap that.

It’s time to begin! I’ve decided to write 3 songs together with my partners. The first will be in Rondo form, a simpler form to get into the gist of things, likely in C Major or D Major. The next will be in Sonata form, still only one movement but in G Major. Finally we’ll have one in F Major with 3 movements. We will hopefully perform all of them together and showcase them on our blogs. Now, time to have some fun!
