Totally agree❤….(advanced beginner) I practice regular and then my concentration goes so I take a break of approx 20/30 minutes and give it another go. I then continue to practice until I’m spent and then I stop and come back to it the next day or the day after that and then I am refreshed. 😊love you accuracy ❤
There are days I play really terrible but I know it happens and leave it at that. I know that tomorrow it might be good or at least better.
I have practised with intervals from the beginning but nowadays I also have days I don’t play because it is not enough to relax my shoulder muscles with interval pauses.
All of the above! Thank you
Believe me or not, i had this thought in my head after practice session… Something like “Hm… Yesterday it sounded better”. I even thought that everyday practice just doesn’t let me rest enough, which leads to worse results next day… Gotta experiment with my schedule a little. Thank you for this video, it was extremely on time for me, heh ^_^
I don’t feel knackered, I just get back pain. I’m not displeased after practice, I’m just happy that I did. I’m 74 years old today, so anything I can do in decent fashion, I’m pleased with.
Or you can do what I did and not practice for almost 2 years and come back playing oddly but significantly better than you were prior then remember you act play three instruments from the same family (viola and cello) and play around on them as well to also see that you got significantly better on those as well despite having even less experience with those instruments compared to the violin (well, the cello at least, I guess the viola is pretty much the same as the violin when it comes to playing) — this is not recommended, while taking a break is helpful, going away for 2 years is wasted time you could’ve used to practice and be actually better and I’ve already been playing for 10 years so getting back into the swing of things was very easy for me.
