As someone once said “If you can play it slowly, you can play it quickly.”

SLOW IS SMOOTH AND SMOOTH IS FAST. Your knowledge of music is impressive and your ability to convey it clearly and concisely is brilliant.

One addition: go to sleep every once in a while. Sleep is when the brain processes new things learned over the last period of awakeness. This is when muscle memory is truly 'burned into' your muscles. If younstart getting stuck, take a break, get a good night's sleep, and continue the next day!

This requires patience. There is no shortcut. As a clarinet player, this is essential!

You are a genius. I have realised the the moment I started with 60 and I can see my muscle memory driving my playing after few rounds of practice. Thank you very much for making me realise why the fingering wasnt working out before.

This video has had a massively positive impact on my playing. I've gone from feeling like my technique was stagnant and never really got better to feeling a substantial improvement after every single practice session. It's so true that, even if we've all heard that you gotta start slow, we never start slowly enough. At first when I saw this video saying that you should start doing whole notes at 50bpm, I thought it was absurd, that felt way too slow, but after trying it it makes a lot of sense. I've been working on my legato playing by practicing trills with this method, and by the time you get to quarter notes you're already in full control of every single aspect of your movement. It's insane how useful this is. I can't thank you enough! I can't believe advice this good can be found freely available on the internet.

As a fledgling bassoonist of 4 years, I used this technique to learn the Bolero solo ( my go to technique for all my other woodwinds, professional musician of 30 years) It took me 4 months. I started with half notes, quarter notes, for note connections, tuning and physical positioning, and then I did roughly 50 speeds a day , digitally going up 1 number at a time. It pays to do the basics :) That took about 45-60 min a day. 3x's without mistakes helps you decide when to move up a level. And yes, I played the solo and was happy :)

sigh i have to do it...
if you can play it slowly, you can play it quickly

This has produced a paradigm shift in my thinking. Not that I didn't already know about muscle memory, but the importance of playing every single note flawlessly is reinforced. This will definitely help me in situations where very often there's no sheet music for me to go on.

As a music teacher and musician I endorse this approach with a couple of addendums.
Memorization of the sound of the music is essential but should go hand in hand with the development of technique
AND more importantly, its not necessary to play at any tempo or it is possible to play with a 'flexible' tempo similar to the idea of playing rubato or without a distinct pulse while laying down the foundations. The more you play error free the quicker you can go.
Final one. You need to synchronize your ears and brain to the speed of the music. If you can't hear it fast you won't be able to play it fast. By that I mean, be able to follow and hear the details of the music at speed.
I find that it's just as useful to play one or two notes fast and then add another note at tempo and then another and then another making sure that each addition to the phrase is preceded by being able to play it error free up to that point.
We are basically training our ears and brains too. So listen fast to play fast.

This technique is what I needed. I am a beginner and my instructor challenged me with playing the Clark Study with low F sharps, low Gs, low As. I had a hard time even recognizing the notes so many lines below the staff. I was befuddled, intimidated and disappointed with my lack of skill.
Now I played it as whole notes and it started becoming so much better!
Thanks, Sir.

This is the first thing I teach my children while playing chord switches only I start them at 60bpm whole notes 3x without mistakes, then move to 70bmp without mistakes until you reach 120, then go back and do half notes at 60 and repeat until the desired tempo is reached. It's also how I practice basically everything.

As I tell my student; "The slower you play it, the sooner you can play it fast." Then I ask them to explain what I just said.

As someone who actually learns piano on an advanced level, I have to add that there are some caveats to this technique which in general is sound: 1st: The movements you do at a fast tempo are different then the movements you do at a slow tempo, you have to know what kind of fingerings and movements are required for fast tempo and mimic them at slow tempo, that takes a lot of experience. 2nd: “Muscle memory” does not happen instantly, the biggest improvements happen between practice session (PPP - post practice progress), that’s why working on more than one phrase at a time might save you time. The technique shown in the video is only necessary for super hard passages in vast majority of cases increasing the tempo by a large amount and then go back to slow tempo works better, is less dreary and more efficient.

Thank you so much for uploading this. I have recently gotten into the Dominican Güira, popular in merengue music, which is very commonly played at very high speeds, sometimes well over 200 beats per minute. I finally have a structured approach to learning basic rhythms as well as fills at very high speeds. I feel like with a couple of months of dedicated and organized practice sessions with this approach, I'll be able to play at those speeds. Thank you for sharing these tips to help!!!

Damn! I have wanted to do music for forever and this channel is just a lifesaver... Thank you very much. I'll keep this gem in mind to share it with anyone else I find in the same spot as me.

so convincing and reassuring to know you have such a method to share!

I'm intrigued... and I happen to being studying an elaborate 8-bar jazz arpeggio: 16 notes for each bar in a 4/4 tempo (128 notes) with a recommended metronome of 80. I finished memorising the right hand (it's a piano piece) yesterday evening and currently I'm slow and I make mistakes (there are several difficulties, a couple of them pretty remarkable...) so I will try your method, effective tomorrow or the day after tomorrow (today is new year's eve...) and I will be back 😊. A happy new year to you and to everybody 😊.

You have no idea how helpful this video was. Completely changed my practicing. Thank you!
