Message: [QUOTE="Bigboote, post: 2458130, member: 7631"] There's a saying among musicians: Practice makes permanent. Not practice makes perfect, because if what you're practicing isn't the way it should be, you'll become consistent, but not good. For example, a lot of players want to play a tune faster than they're able. It thus includes poor phrasing, if not downright mistakes, and then when they speed it up, those imperfections are propagated. Another way a teacher put it to me is that everything you practice should have a purpose. I think we're discovering that Z must need to unlearn a few things to fully incorporate into the UConn system. At this point, I think everything she's doing in practice DOES have a purpose, and she'll get it by the end of the season. [/QUOTE]
