[LUTE] Re: left hand exercise

2018-01-07 Thread John Mardinly 
   Before I retired, when I worked at Arizona State University, I spent a
   fair amount of time walking around campus and always carried hand
   exercise equipment that I could use while walking. However, it is a
   poor substitute to actually practicing.

   This one for squeezing:

   r

   This one foe extending fingers:

   QG/ref=pd_sbs_200_41?_encoding=UTF8_rd_i�0597E3QG_rd_r�X566NJN0FF
   JFEZANBE_rd_w=BOv8Q_rd_wgibQv=1�X566NJN0FFJFEZANBE

   You could also use these for hiking, train rides, etc. But again it is
   a poor substitute to actually practicing, but when you can't actually
   practice or do anything else worthwhile, I suppose it has some benefit.

 As said before, I'm not much into exercises on the lute, lifting wine
 glasses and turning pages is about as sporty as it goes for me, but I
 currently have an on-line pupil who likes to have some. I made her
 this, beneficial for left-hand posture, slurs, ornaments, keeping
 fingers close to the fingerboard, killing time and feeling good about
 doing workout without having to go to the gym:

 Ideally to be played in any key you can think of, singing along with
 the right note names, and in any rhythm you feel is today's rhythm.

Wow David- you make it sound musical! (I always thought wood shedding 
was supposed to sound ugly so that it would be more like "work"- that's 
they way I've always done it...)
