I love your story about raising your hands and being excited about your accomplishment. I can still remember the first time I hit altissimo g. I could go higher but g was so elusive once I found it and replicated it I felt like I was floating over the floor in that practice room. As long asc we can celebrate our accomplishments without becoming that guy. Love your use of the candide, as a clarinet player I know the battle.
how do you keep your practices focused and constantly find stuff to practice? I feel my practices loses direction after about 30min because I run out of stuff to do.
This biggest thing for me is figuring out what my goals are. Since I have goals planned out for each week it gives me a bulleted list of stuff to practice. Another big thing is understanding you can always practice something slower. Slow and correct reps are so good for long term growth. Fundamentals are also key, so getting something like the CHOPS book by Dan Graser gives you infinite things to work on. I would love to talk more about setting up virtual lessons. If you could email me at (redacted) we can work through it. Thanks!
