Growth is practice. Success is practice. Parenting is practice and so is being a spouse. Keeping your Wordle streak is practice, getting good at math is practice, finishing 100 books a year is practice.
What I’m trying to say is, getting good at practice is a very, very important skill. And it’s the skill that we develop above all others in music school.
That’s what I try to tell parents whose kids are thinking of pursuing music. Whatever they end up doing in life, the music study will serve them because they’ll know how to practice.
And everything is practice.
