Re: Six Levels of Preparation

Trent,

In my opinion the slower the better, amigo. Hakan does the same, even before playing something as common as the Haydn Concerto. It gives the ears and brain a chance to synchronize with the blow and time for a fresh plan to formulate.

Then. . . you just play it.

Best,
EC
