  • Judy Loman: On the Best Advice For an Aspiring Harpist (or Musician)
    “If I didn’t have the harp, I wouldn’t be me.”Internationally renowned harpist Judy Loman remains an active practicer, performer, and teacher at 89 years of age - and still clearly enjoys and loves what she does.So how does one maintain motivation and a sense of joy in making music through life’s ups and downs, good and bad practice days, and peak and not-so-peak performances?In this episode, you’ll hear the five pieces of advice she would offer to an aspiring harpist (they’re applicable to singers and other musicians too), learn how to approach pieces that you might not like, and find out the two things she would do if she had only 20 minutes to practice today.Get the full transcript and watch the video version of the full interview right here:Judy Loman: On the Best Advice For an Aspiring Harpist (or Musician)* * *Have you been feeling a little stuck or stagnant in the practice room? Or has performance anxiety and the gap between practice and performance been a nagging issue that hasn’t changed, no matter how well you've prepared for performances, auditions - and even lessons? If you’ve been wanting to experience more joy in the practice room and play more like yourself on stage, but haven’t been quite sure how to make that happen, starting July 22, 2025, I’ll be teaching a live, online, accelerated 2-week class on the most essential mental skills and practice strategies that can make a difference in your practicing and performing. We’ll meet twice a week via Zoom and work on a series of exercises and techniques in four essential skill areas (effective practice, managing anxiety, focus, and confidence), together as a group. And to make sure the concepts become consistent habits, I'll show you how to gently integrate these new skills into your (or your students’) daily practice through bite-sized practice challenges alongside a supportive group of practice buddies from around the world.

  • A Comparison of Three Approaches to Teaching Expressiveness
    We learned last week that having more to say expressively with the music we’re playing could increase the likelihood of experiencing more flow states in performance (here, in case you missed it). But this study looked at a bunch of different strategies and classes that were spread out over 6 months.Are there faster ways to help students play more expressively?Like, what about the sorts of things that our teachers did for us when we were students? Like demonstrating certain passages in lessons, so we’d have a clearer model to aim for (or having us listen to recordings, or encouraging us to go to concerts).Or using metaphors or images to help us understand the mood or character of a particular moment more clearly.Or simply telling us what to do - like explaining how short the dots should be, or where exactly the accelerando should start, etc.Well, lucky for us, a 2006 study compared these strategies to see if they worked - and if any of them was more effective than the others.Get all the nerdy details (and musical examples and links to additional resources and related podcast episodes not included in the audio version) here:A Comparison of Three Approaches to Teaching Expressiveness* * *Have you been feeling a little stuck or stagnant in the practice room?

  • The Overlooked Skill That Could Make Performing More Enjoyable
    You know those really good days on stage? Where you’re totally present and in the moment, at one with your instrument, locked in on the music, not worried at all about what anyone might think, and just have this feeling that everything is going to work out, because playing just feels so easy and effortless?Would be nice if we could have more of those kinds of days, no? 😅Are these good days a function of simply practicing more? And making sure our technique is totally secure and solid so we have total confidence in our ability to play accurately and consistently? Or could it be that there’s something more involved?Get all the nerdy details and learn more about the aspect of practice that could enhance your ability to get into flow states in performance:The Overlooked Skill That Could Make Performing More Enjoyable* * *Have you been feeling a little stuck or stagnant in the practice room?

  • How Do Effective Practicers Make the Most of Their Practice Time?
    Effective practicers tend to be more motivated, empowered, and persistent, whereas less effective practicers tend to feel more helpless and lower self-efficacy.But what do they actually do differently?One of the big differences between better and worse practicers in a 2021 study was the time spent in "non-playing" practice activities. Like, those periods between the playing and repetitions where our fingers aren't moving and making sounds come out of our instruments. And what exactly is happening in those quiet moments? Get all the nerdy details  in this week's episode, with links to additional resources here if you'd like to explore this further:How Do Effective Practicers Make the Most of Their Practice Time?* * *Have you been feeling a little stuck or stagnant in the practice room?

  • Do We Unconsciously Favor Talent Over Effort?
    You're probably heard the quote "Genius is 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration."But what do you think? Both play some role of course, but which do you think is more important for achieving success - innate ability or effortful training?What would you say if I said that you might be fooling yourself? Where even if you think that you believe effort and training to be more important, deep down, you might actually favor natural ability over hard work?Are we all biased against effort without realizing it?Get all the nerdy details here:Do We Unconsciously Favor Talent Over Effort?* * *Have you been feeling a little stuck or stagnant in the practice room?
