Having a consistent daily practice routine is essential for progress. This routine should include exercises in harmony, tone production, articulations, scales, melodic studies, and repertoire.
Below, I’ll share my personal practice routine. It involves several different books, and of course, it’s not possible to go through them all at once. That’s why I aim to study a bit from each one every day, rotating between them. This helps me stay engaged and prevents burnout from overstudying.
Tone studies are essential for developing a beautiful sound. In this section, we provide daily content to support your tone practice.

Daily repetition strengthens the muscles and reflexes needed to perform any musical passage with ease and accuracy.
