Final, short practice of day, just before heading to theater.
More practice when not needed for Recital prep.
Went to ATUS well before call time to be on hand to help and practice when not needed. Had a good day of short sessions.
Prepare "Prism" by Kaoru Watanabe for possible performance at ECTC.
Goal: make it seem so confident it's like I wrote the piece. Become the go-to player for Prism in LA for Kaoru.
Ideas
- comping
- muting
- odd-time movement
- teko
Plan
1) break composed part down into sections, memorize
2) develop base groove on naname with multiple gears
3) practice improvising rhythms over base groove
4) develop named phrases
5) attempt arrangement
6) practice
7) send Kaoru video
Regular practice. Started late after helping KA with drum prep for Recital and then feeling lazy.
Studios busy, chance to practice Radiddlepa.
