I had a great violin lesson the other day, when my student and I worked on practicing music "in color". Now, don't think I made this all up on my own. I read an article about this in a magazine that suggested that a great way to practice is to decide on what color the music sounds like. We tried it together and found that once she started looking at the music this way, I could hear so much more variation in tone. It is a great way to stay engaged with the music and to really make practicing an active process. Well, what are you waiting for? Go on, get off the computer and try it.
