Quotes from Julie Landsman’s Inside the Practice Room:
“Practicing a lot doesn't mean you're getting the work done. Practicing efficiently with clear goals and what you're working on and how you're doing it? Go for it. That's just smart. Be smart!”
“Constantly beating up the music and repetition and hitting that wall of frustration… it doesn't help me. I think it's not a creative process. I think it's a self-defeating process.”
“Let's go back to the word efficient. I'm killing two birds with one stone. I'm doing my Snakes (exercises) because they're good for register breaks and I'm practicing tonguing because my tongue needs exercise and I'm practicing double tonguing. So I'm going through all my register break exercises and my articulation exercises just in a very methodical manner. I love that efficiency. I love getting a lot done without wasting a ton of time.”
