music matters is an unknown quantity at this point
I am a comeback player and have had long summer holidays to practice in as I am a teacher. One summer I practiced about 3 hours a day and by the end of the summer had improved considerably and the improvements kept coming for a period of time after that.

I would work on techinical studies (Clarkes or Arbans) - you will notice improvement all the time which is very encouraging. Then look at repertoire and I would use this to develo endurance and range.

Most of all keep it varied, structured and enjoy yourself - it has to be fun!
