There are many musical things to learn and many instruments one can play. Regardless of what instrument you play or what music you are learning, there is an art to HOW to practice. Some people have the knack of sitting down and digging in to whatever it is and learning it well, whereas many people do not! Out of the one-thousand or more students I have had, the procedure of practicing has been as important as WHAT to practice.
This book presents time-tested practice methods that apply to any instrument and any style of music. It does not teach you things to play, but effective methods of how to learn what you want to learn.
You take a lesson and have a week to practice before your next lesson. You are usually alone practicing under your own guidance. Right? It would be great to have some certainty about what you are doing. Right?
So in addition to exposing many falsehoods that are floating around about learning an instrument, this book lays out a series of guidelines that you can apply to yourself when you practice to guarantee that you will progress at a stable and smooth rate. This means quicker progress and more fun!
Nice? Nice!
