The first of its kind, this newly published book is a goldmine of common sense for those who are setting out to master a musical instrument and for those who are teaching them.

What most teachers fail to teach their students, says the author, is how to practise. His book contains tried and tested suggestions for ensuring that the time students spend practising between lessons is time well spent. It is addressed to teachers, students and parents, and contains a great number of practical hints and tips.
