May 19 - polyphony

First attempt at LH and RH each playing a melodic line.

I actually don't know if I'm making progress, as it's more a "mechanical" process I'm following. Trying to remember which RH finger goes to which string at what time.
If someone gave me some music where the melody used all the accompaniment strings, I'd be totally lost until I "memorized" the entire piece, as I can't imagine ever knowing where each melody note is. All accompaniment and bass strings use circle of fifths structure, but melodies are written using a staff with notes in alphabetical order.
Sure hope it eventually becomes automatic. Wow.
