Learn the most effective ways to practice your instrument

Improving on your instrument is as much about being aware of how you practice, as it is how much you practice. This book will show you the most effective ways to practice with advice and methods that can apply to almost all instruments. This will benefit beginner and intermediate level musicians alike, while more advanced levels will find useful insights. Starting with the broader topics such as how long and how often to practice, the book gradually narrows down to specifics, from coordination, timing and practice speed to being mindful of physical and mental limitations, and to make sure our sessions are varied with different types of practice. Information is supported by references from respected scientific literature.

Improve your physiology to optimize your progress

Relevant physiology and how it plays a role in optimizing our improvement is covered. Unless we look after important factors away from when we practice, we aren't fully doing justice to our efforts when we do practice. Topics include the autonomic nervous system, diet, hydration, movement, light, sleep & how to improve it. Keep your hands and body mobile and pain free with thirty-one illustrated stretching exercises, body movements and massage points from neck and shoulders to fingers and thumbs.
