How to learn it

Notice it, practise it, use it again

01 · Notice

Identify the choice

Focus on the specific musical decision instead of judging the whole attempt as good or bad.

02 · Practise

Complete an exercise

Use a short exercise to hear the skill clearly and try it for yourself.

03 · Apply

Use it in context

Try the same skill in another exercise, another school, or a more complete piece of work.
