Synopsis
Designed for musicians of all ages, this guide encourages self-motivation to practice and helps learners develop a balanced technique and musicianship. More than a time chart, this book helps musicians develop a healthy attitude toward practicing by allowing readers to set various goals that will define why they are practicing. Each two-page chart encourages listening, ear-training, and sight-reading as important elements of learning an instrument. Ample space for questions, teacher s comments, and musical discoveries is included, and two lines of blank music staves provide room for collecting practice tips, musical examples, and other indispensable information too often forgotten.
