Reviewiewdiew (Review You Do)
Christina Smith kindly gave us the Reviewiewdiew (Review You Do) charts and instructions on how to use them:
"For pieces that are really in bad shape I tell my students not to practice them. Do all the ones that are in good shape, thinking about the week's practice point (intonation, posture, whatever it is) then pick one desperate one, work on it for five minutes, then put it away. Follow the same procedure the next night until that piece is in good shape, then draw the face in and pick another wreck."
The idea is Ed Kreitman's from his book, Teaching from the Balance Point. The idea to create the charts is Christina's. Thank you Christina! This makes Review a much more meaningful exercise!Reviewiewdiew for Cello (PDF format)
