Practice Routine
Just curious what you who work a regular job do for your practice weekly. I was formerly in the Army Band but that was many years ago and now I have a family and work Monday thru Friday. I also teach at a local university one night a week as well. Getting practice in can be a challenge. I find that I am spending a large percentage of practice on long tones, scales and flexibility and not as much time on technical studies or etudes. This is probably not the best model but I no longer have hours a day to practice like I did in the military. What is your routine to keep the chops up?
