How do you practice well?
There are so many keys to effective practice; one often overlooked is assessment. If you aren’t assessing yourself as you practice, you are much more likely to be undermining your growth with inefficient practice.
HOW do you assess yourself in practice?
- Record yourself and listen back.
- Sing and play your part simultaneously.
- Use a part recording to compare your singing to.
- Sing softer and listen louder.
Most importantly, prioritize self-assessment as you practice. Make it a core habit of your practice regimen to double and triple check that you’re assessing yourself. That way, you know you are making your practice count.
