Quote of the Month

I think young flutists should never be nervous because they have nothing to lose. Some people are very jealous of others, but I don’t feel this way when I play, I just do the best I can. Everyone should play their best and not worry about how others feel about their playing.

~Jean Pierre-Rampal

Practice time!

You don’t have to practice everyday,

only on the days you eat. ~Shinichi Suzuki

Practice duration should match lesson duration (minimum).

Musicians who believe music is important to them will MAKE time for practice…FINDING time is sporadic at best. Some days are more predictable than others…when possible, practice at a SCHEDULED time. If practice time isn’t scheduled it is easy for a whole day to go by without picking up your flute. Treat practice time like a class or an appointment.

Slow practice makes us better…when we are good at something it is fun!

Please see practice tips…
