Practicing For Young Musicians: You Are Your Own Teacher

by Harvey R. Snitkin

Real progress happens when you take your weekly lesson, right? Wrong! Success depends on what you do between lessons, and when and how you practice. Between lessons, you are your own teacher. Regardless of your instrument, or what style of music you hope to perform, this book will help you take responsibility for your own progress and use the time you spend practicing in the most rewarding way possible. Through fresh, upbeat approaches, Practicing for Young Musicians will make practice sessions more fun, more productive, and help young musicians develop a special relationship with their instrument. You will discover why you must take responsibility for your own progress, why success happens between lessons when you practice, and why between lessons you are your own teacher.

Old Children's Book. Liked it as a kid, but haven't read it in years.

no practical suggestions on how to practice well. he does mention to buy a music stand and a metronome. that summarizes the book.
