Worked on part IV of Franck's sonata during last weeks lesson. Everything up to 5th position was ok intonation-wise but I still need to work on dynamics and tone colors - forgot to let it all hang out in the ff parts.

Started with 1st part of the "Adelaïde concerto" - I don't care if it's by Mozart or Casadesus, it's still a lot of fun to play.

Practiced for three hours each on Saturday and Sunday.

Two more weeks and I'll be on vacation.
