yesterday I practiced for 15 minutes on the grade 10 band pieces. I ran all three with very little difficulty, I just had to slow down a difficult rhythm.

Today I sang along to the scale study on page 11 while playing the metronome at the same time. This helped me get a better feel for the tempo I was looking at, and to force me to figure out the fingerings without my tuba. This way, as soon as I picked up the instrment, I was ready to play it fluidly. Little difficulty, just need to work out some fingering issues. (20 minutes)
