Thanks for the update, Ernesto. I’m glad to hear the exam went well. And some passages might always be a little uncomfortable – like for pianists, the Franck violin sonata has some parts that are just always a little uncomfortable, no matter how many times you play it. If you can get through it and still make it sound like compelling music, it might be ok that it doesn’t feel as comfortable as you’d like!

If you’d like to explore some of the most essential skills and techniques in the course live, with a cohort of curious, thoughtful, supportive, and like-minded educators (and a few mildly irreverent or benevolently sarcastic folks mixed in to make sure we don’t get too serious), that’s also an option!
Starting Thursday, February 3rd, we’ll meet via Zoom once a week, and go through selected strategies related to effective practice, managing nerves, and achieving flow states under pressure. We’ll do some in-class playing experiments (don’t worry – you’ll be muted!), short weekly homework assignments, and small-group breakout sessions to help you integrate these new skills into your teaching.
This 6-week live course is normally $199, but is available at 50% off the regular cost when bundled with Beyond Practicing. For more details about the live course (and dates) CLICK HERE.
