      Set the metronome to 96 & could play
      the 1st 5 bars ok! But got stuck on bar 6!

      quaver-1, crochet-&2,quaver-&,quaver-3,
      crochet-&4,quaver-&.

      So took your advice Johnny,
      Just working on bar 6 until i can get it
      right before proceding onto bar 7.

      The only way i could get my head round
      it counting wise with the metronome,
      was to do what you recomended!
      So i dropped the metronome down to 50
      beats, and after several attempts managed
      to play bar 6 properly.
      Then i’m doing what you suggested,
      that is increase the metronome in small
      leaps, so when i could play it at 55 beats,
      moved it up to 60. So now i’m up to 83.
      Eventually i’ll get it up to 96, then i hopefully
      will be able to play all 6 bars at 96 beats &
      proceed on.
      I think bar 14 is the next problem bar.
      So with your approach Johnny I should be
      able to eventually get through the whole
      piece!
      Thanks for this valuable tip!

        count and tap your feet…it’s just quarters and eights so nothing too complicated and if you keep it slow like that until it’s natural you’ll move on soon enough.
