How much practice do I need to do to get good at my instrument
from Win With Music
In Episode 2 of the Win With Music Podcast we explore the common question of how much practice do I need to do to get good at my instrument. To address that question a preliminary discussion needs to occur to define what you consider to be 'getting good' on your instrument. Compared to who and what? We get to hear two late, great legends of the jazz alto saxophone discuss this question from a 1954 radio interview that Paul Desmond, of Take 5 fame with Dave Brubeck, conducted with Charlie Parker, the father of Be Bop jazz and an acclaimed master of improvisation.
