OK so my Clarke Technical Studies for the Cornet method book has now arrived, and I was simply wondering:

# How long to spend on each "study"
Until it is perfect!

# Whether it is necessary to practice each study every daily, or to focus my attention on different studies according to which areas of my playing need attention.
Daily

# Your own personal preferences - which exercises do you prefer, and find that give you the best workout?
Like BWB: 1-8
He said it all! I leave my pinky in the fingerhook though because that is the way that I normally play and those are the patterns of motion that I need to develop.

Up an octave on the picc is great stuff for building high chops too! Never play them loudly!
