Hi Máté just wanted to say that your lessons will be up here soon. I've prepared a few but I've decided the next few steps need to come all at once, rather than just teaching you one thing at a time. This way a lot of your questions will be answered, and I think the exercises will be more succesful. Pretty soon after that we'll be getting onto real music assignments. Is there anything in particular you'd like to do?
Traditionaly everyone does Bach chorales, but while these are good for study I think they're actually a little hard to begin with - so what we might do is have a go at something simpler like Mozart/Haydn string quartet minuets, which are also really good fun.
I'm not 100% sure but after that I might let you have a go at doing some Purcell Ground Bass Arias. I know that sounds really tricky, but I think you might be up to it. We'll see...
