Re: Ways to Get More From Your Practice Time?
Well explained. I especially like #4
I also do the analytic slowing-down approach for zooming in on clams that normally rush past too fast to comprehend.
My major deviation lies in #3 - if I devote 1/3 of the time in learning a new tune, I learn it alright, but I destroy ten other older tunes on the way (I do ITM where many tunes share similar phrases, and the danger of derailing into another tune in mid-play grows with the square of the number of tunes you know). I have come to let a new tune trickle in over days, sometimes weeks by doing a few measures of it for, say, 5 minutes and then return to similar older tunes for half an hour to keep them intact.
