Are You Practicing Enough to Meet Your Musical Goals?

from Musicianship Mastery with David Lane · host David Lane

This episode contains hard truth.  Most of you are probably not practicing enough to reach any goals of advanced repertoire, and there's a chance that you're going to be stuck on elementary music for a long time.  In this episode, let's look at what kind of results you get when you average as little as 15 minutes per day a few times per week all the way up to 4 hours per day everyday.  As you listen, take the time to evaluate how much time you really could put into practicing, and make sure your goals are aligning with the time and work you are able to do. Musicianship Mastery is formerly known as The Musician Toolkit.
