Small Group (regular Sunday), Glenn's House

Attending:  Glenn, Scott, Rick, Brad.

Jumping straight in with CMaj work, and circulating up and down 3 octaves; different permutations of this, including a revisit to +2 -1 while maintaining tertiary motion.  Per a suggestion from Rick, we move to the E diminished scale (half-whole), and then the E whole-tone scale.  Different strategies being used throughout.

A break while we move upstairs for noshing, courtesy of Scarlet's kitchen work.  Many thanks.

Back to the basement.  Some general calisthenics work--Scott has been working with the Hammerhead exercise, so we run that for a bit.  A couple of different interpretations of the anchor exercise (the 4th primary) are presented.  Glenn re-presents the 16 bar exercise, reminding everyone that the focus of the exercise is not in the hands.

A final circulation/improvisation to close the night.
