I'm sure this is the secret desire of my music teacher for me. LOL

My teacher used to say: “Fast practice, slow progress. Slow practice, fast progress. No practice, no progress.”

My piano teacher said 'don't practice until you get it right, practice until it can't go wrong...'
I say 'learn music you love, then practicing will always be a pleasure...'

I've heard that if you practice slow enough to NEVER make a mistake, you will never err in your "real" playing.

Jerry's got me committed to an hour a day of "grim determination" on scales, chords, Hanon, etc. With a metronome. How about "Take your hand off the accordion and then play an inversion without looking at the keyboard? What's the matter, the keys aren't going anywhere!" They don't call him Jerry "P"almer "H"ughes for nothing.....

They don't call him Jerry "P"almer "H"ughes for nothing.....

They don't call me "lost"hobos for nothing either....

They don't call me "lost"hobos for nothing either....

If you were found you probably wouldn't be a hobo..... just sayin'
