| PRACTICE TIPS |
| ||||||
| the ART of practice: it's not always quantity of practice that pays off, but rather the quality of it. here are some valuable tips which will be helpful throughout your entire playing career before you play a song examine it carefully BEFORE YOU PLAY, look for: TIME SIGNATURE- is the song written in 3/4, 4/4 or another time REPEAT SIGNS- where are they and where do they send you STRANGE NOTES- what are their names, where are they played HARD SECTIONS- locate the groups of notes that might be difficult RERUNS- identify sections that are repeated later in the song and remember where they are TEMPO- how fast should the song be played WHILE YOU'RE PLAYING: PLAY VERY SLOWLY from start to finish the first few times ISOLATE difficult sections, and practice each one separately until there is no hesitation, better yet, memorize them EXPAND the difficult sections by starting at the measure before and continuing to play through the measure after REST every half hour or so to give your brain and hands a break, while you waiting think not on you music, but instead have a snack or watch tv |
