Hi Augustas,
Yes – ultimately, I’d experiment with this a bit to see what ends up working the best. Because in theory, if you’re working on something new, it might help to start with at-tempo practice of the tricky passages first, to get a sense of what the demands are going to be, and then slow things down afterwards, to ensure that when you are doing slow practice, you’re still doing slow practice in a way that’s informed by an understanding of the constraints that you’ll have to work under at the goal tempo. Does that make sense?
