Practicing SuccessfullyA Masterclass in the Musical Artby Elizabeth A.H. Greenwith a Reflection by Rebecca Ericsson HunterLegendary music educator Elizabeth A. H. Green completed this work in the last days of her life. The manuscript tragically remained undiscovered for many years, but now you can read as she draws upon her decades of experience instructing students of all levels to break down the practicing regimen into a logical learning sequence.In Part One, she suggests isolating difficult musical passages so they become instantly manageable using rhythmic motifs, scales, accentuations, and etudes. In Part Two, experts on various instruments discuss recurring problems and how to defeat them. In the concluding Part Three, Green notes the physiological principles of practice and suggests ways to modify practice sessions to reflect these facts. She writes, Ultimate success depends upon one immutable, inescapable, and well-publicized fact: the musician has to practice successfully or not.Hard Cover. 145 pages.
