Piano iPhone Challenge
Cindy’s Piano Studio students recently participated in a
Piano iPhone Challenge. What is a Piano iPhone
Challenge? Students had to work for one
month to earn as many of the eight available APPS as they could. Some APPS were accomplished during the month
at the lessons and some were done during weekly home practice sessions. The eight APPs were:
1.
Practice nine days in a row – tough one but a
few students did accomplish this one.
2.
Compose a short piece
3.
Hold a mini recital at home
4.
Memorize two pieces
5.
Complete four theory assignments
6.
Sightread four pieces – that means they play a
piece correctly the first time.
7.
Ear Training – The teacher plays two examples on
the piano and they chose which was played.
8.
Complete three pieces from their lesson book
Of
the nine participating students, Ava Crist and Sarah Quadt received all eight
APPs. Carling Lockwood received seven. The other
participating students were: MB, April and Lily Gustafson, Aaron and Courtney Jung,
and Jack Lingenfelter.
