I'm a proud owner of Basics and Practice

July 14, 2006 at 3:48 AM

After making sure that there are no additional taxes I need to pay this year (in fact, I will be getting a little tax refund), I bought Carl Fischer's Basics and Practice today!

Now I just have to include the Basics and Practice in my daily practice. The tricky thing is to figure out where to start... do I follow the book page by page or go to areas I have problems with? How much time a day should I spend on Basics/Practice? How to balance that with my exam pieces, orchestra pieces, scales etc.?
