August Ask Me Anything #2 - Roadblocks when practising (Patreon)

I share my thoughts here on a patron's question about stalling when practising: they encounter a problem and despite their continuous best efforts, they don't seem to be able to progress!

Problem 1 - The piece is harder than you originally thoughts

Problem 2 - You need to analyze the music from a theory perspective

Problem 3 - Your solutions aren't necessarily the proper ones for the particular problem you're encountering

With diverse players, levels, instruments, pieces, and problems, the best answer I can provide is to book a private lesson so we can zero in on the problem and find solutions that YOU can perform
