The Art of Practising
This is a brilliant quote from the great violin pedagogue Leopold Auer which sums up the art of practising. When asked by his student Nathan Milstein if he needed to practise more than 1 hour 1/2 each day, Auer replied ‘Practise with your fingers and you need all day. Practise with your mind and you will do as much in 1 1/2 hours.’
