Over the next concert cycle, I would like to improve on many performance aspects. Among the many, I will focus on articulation, rhythm, and intonation. I will try to focus on improving my articulation by doing tonguing and slurring exercises. There are many great example measures of music in Chorale and Shaker Dance II where articulation is needed for it to sound fine. Also, I need to count and focus on my sense of rhythm to improve my playing. I will listen hard to other parts and practice my own counting/rhythm to get the feel of the music. Intonation is also an important aspect to focus on because I play 2nd part and it harmonizes with the 1st part. I have to pay particular attention and work to improve my intonation with the rest of my section and the 1st part section.These are the key aspects I will work to improve upon over the next concert cycle.
