First long Sunday is over! If the current schedule remains unchanged, I'll have 9 more long Sundays! But oh well, repertoire is nice so it's good in a way.

I gave my instrument a bath this morning after finding out that my first valve had a buildup on it that caused it to slow down. Now the whole instrument is fresh, clean and well lubed.

My scores and CDs have finally arrived! Been waiting for such a long time. So if I interpret the NAFA syllabus for bass trombone correctly, my etudes are all on the first position! Of course it's very very highly unlikely. Going to have to check it out with Mr. Adams. The Goess edition for the Sachse Concertino also has some discrepancies with the copy Fredi gave me so I guess all this confusion has to be cleared up. Alright then, time to get some rest. A morning swim and orchestra rehearsal tomorrow!
