One Thing a Month

My New Year's resolution is to make one thing--music, photo, writing or video--each month for 2012. Follow along as I document the process

Some lessons I’ve learned tonight

  • You should start building up hand strength before you have to worry about learning a song.
  • Going more than five years without regular practice means your skills come back very slowly if at all.
  • It’s easy to copy someone else’s arrangement, but much more challenging to develop your own and make sure it works well.
  • I hope every thing I make this year is as much of a stretch goal as this one; it could fail spectacularly, but at least I’ll learn something.
