The Student and Tutor worked on a piano piece, addressing the Student's difficulties with performance versus solo practice. The Tutor introduced the concept of practicing at double the intended speed to improve performance reliability. They then focused on specific problematic measures, practicing hand coordination and introducing new notes, particularly E flat, for an upcoming section of the piece.

The Student and Tutor continued their piano lesson on the song "Red Light," focusing on correcting timing, note accuracy, and hand coordination for specific measures. The session concluded with the Tutor assigning an ear training exercise for homework, where the Student will use a video guide and their musical ear to learn the remaining left-hand parts of the song, focusing on its four main chords.

Student and Tutor continued their work on piano improvisation, focusing on targeting chord tones using enclosure techniques. They practiced applying these concepts to a four-chord progression and discussed integrating scales as bridges and syncopating melodies. The Student was assigned to apply these improvisation methods to the song "Fly Me to the Moon" for their next session.

The Student and Tutor focused on piano chords, specifically learning the root and fifth for major chords (B flat, E flat, F) within the context of a song. The Student practiced identifying these chord components and was instructed to continue practicing the song, focusing on playing the root and fifth with the left hand, and to be prepared to play more of it in the next session.

Student and Tutor worked on piano technique, focusing on improving coordination and timing for the songs "Red Light" and the "Billy Jean" exercise. They practiced specific measures and chord voicings, with an emphasis on developing muscle memory and mindful correction of mistakes. The Student was assigned to continue practicing challenging sections of "Red Light" and the "Billy Jean" exercise.

The Tutor and Student conducted a detailed review of a video demonstrating a virtual guitar instrument, meticulously refining its visual elements. They focused on ensuring precise alignment of on-screen titles, camera zooms on specific instrument controls, and the overall timing and transitions of graphics to enhance the viewer's understanding of the features. The session aimed to finalize the video for optimal presentation.
