Piano Mastery Talks - Reading Together - The Art of Practice


"I believe in taking one selection of Bach and perfecting it—transposing it in all keys and polishing it to the highest point possible. So with études, it is better to perfect a few than to play at so many."
(page 190, Kindle Edition)

"Every intelligent player recognizes certain exercises as especially beneficial to the mechanical well-being of his playing; from these he will plan his daily schedule of technical practise."
(page 190, Kindle Edition)

"Clarence Adler counsels pupils always to begin by practising slowly—faster tempo will develop later, subconsciously."
(page 192, Kindle Edition)
