This reminds me a lot of the concept of 'tactical periodisation' training in soccer. Things like using the football in training even when training something completely different. Essentially training everything in a context closer to that in which it will be used. Doesn't just make training less boring, but also more effective.

My university's music program is amazing, especially for piano. I auditioned as a mostly self taught musician and was accepted. Then I got there and suddenly my teacher was a superb pianist with an international career, the practice rooms reserved for pianists all had baby Steinways, and I got overwhelmed. Practicing became so difficult because I kept hearing the other students playing and comparing myself, and also my teacher told me to keep track of how long I practiced each piece (+ technique like scales) and I really didn't like that because it made me feel defeated if I felt like I'd been playing something for an hour and it turned out to be 30 minutes. She sat me down midway through the semester and told me that I should be practicing for at least 3 hours a day, but that it had to be GOOD practice, not just running my pieces over and over. Anyway, I just did my final jury for my first semester and got all As, which is a testament to my teacher, really. I'm inspired by my good jury results to do better, GOOD practicing next semester and these are just the tips I needed! I easily get bored and frustrated, especially if it's something to do with technique. I'm definitely going to use these tips next semester!!!

It's also super helpful when you aim for PERFECTION at every iteration (during repetitions). When you try to play each without making any errors with rhythm, fingering, note, articulation, dynamic, etc., your brain will be fully engaged. Which is the point of Nahre's suggestion in this video: Make your brain engaged.

This reminds me of what my violin teacher calls "etudizing" passages. She encourages me to create my own etudes around parts I need to work on. I can adjust them to add complexity or fit specific aspects I need to work on and make it sound musical. But I am creating my own personal practice method around it.

As a bassist and guitarist I find interesting to do is tapping an underlying rhythm to what I'm playing. Once I know how to play it to the original I can mix it up a little, maybe move the beat forward or back e.g. a quarter or eighth note. Apart from that humming or whistling a melody over the practice piece works too.

thank you for these ideas! As a kid practicing always felt like a boring chore, just repeating things because i *had to*. For a while I stepped away from music but a while back I came across a music therapist that helps her clients avoid pain in their hands by helping them relax by rediscovering the joy of playing. When playing is about pleasure (enjoying the sound and even just the feeling of playing) then often their pain faded away. Since then I've been trying to always focus on the pleasure and joy of just making music, and your recommendations are helping so much. thank you!

Nice thing about this form of practicing is, that you can apply it to a lot of other topics/instruments as well. Right hand picking training on guitars for instance: Do your practice routine, sweetend by some nice fillings on the neck. Feels less like repetition and more like actively creating music. And always remember: Progress comes over time, start slow an speed up, avoiding mistakes that might sneak in. Repetition legitimizes.

I love this concept so much. I'm a guitar player, but before I started with guitar as a kid, I tried both piano and violin, and couldn't stay focused on either one. I never understood why until recently, when I realized that while my piano and violin teachers packaged their lessons in that dry, dull, monotonous fashion, my guitar teacher always packaged his as little songs, and that kept me way more focused and engaged. I've been using this trick to teach myself piano as an adult, and it's such a huge difference maker. Fantastic video!

I mean, anything is better than sensless repetition, writing little etudes on things you find difficult isn't a bad thing, but you can literally just focus on properly listening to voicing and continuity, always have a goal in mind, and then first of all you don't need to repeat things that many times (especially when you already study at uni or graduated - there's about 99% chance you already have all the movements you need), secondly you can be sure you don't drift away from your purpose and get things done in an optimal time. Now, the sense of accomplishment is quite priceless.

Rhythmical variation is usually enough to keep me engaged with the material, but I still love to use this method on arpeggiated passages. Picked it up from a video of yours 2-3 years ago and it profoundly changed the way I think about practicing. As for slow Bach pieces, I like to try and improvise a Busoni-style arrangement. That way I’m much more conscious of what is going on harmonically and it is also significantly less boring than just practicing the voices over and over. Anyways, thanks so much and keep up the great work!

As a brass player, so much of what we do just to keep our embouchures flexible and strong consists of exercises (slurring between harmonics, pushing upward and downward on our range, practicing all the different articulations). This can get pretty boring and can push your chops into a "rut" - Nahre's approach would mean constantly varying your warmup to address all the issues you need to, but creating variations to keep your approach to the instrument fresh. Creating your own etudes! Thanks so much - I love this channel.

Once warmed up, woodwind players (especially) get very attached to the standard exercise books. I think it's a signal to other players how hard they're working. That's a disincentive to a really fresh approach - you kind of need to have _mastered_ the exercise to start varying it.

It's repetitive and the fingerings are weird to me and I just hate it! I get frustrated everytime I practice specific hard sections. The only good thing about it is that because it's so repetitive the moment I master those tricky parts, I'll have the entire song down! I'll definitely take your advice. Repackaging and adding creative melodies and stuff anything so I don't just blow it off the rest of the day.

This is a great demonstration of what's called "contextual interference" in performance psychology. When most people practice, they look for a feeling of fluency as an indicator that things are going well. But that feeling is misleading because you're mostly just repeating a motor path that you've already solved, so you benefit very little from repetitive practice. Contextual interference is this idea of adding variations that force you to solve new, slightly different problems. It doesn't feel fluent during practice, but it forces you to stay engaged and keep solving the problem of "how do I do this?", which makes it a more effective way to practice. My piano teacher had her own way of doing this -- she'd tell me to play a passage, accenting every odd beat, for a minute or so, before switching to accent every even beat, then every third beat, and so on, before playing it without accents. This helped me get good at difficult runs in some of Bach's preludes and fugues. Another related technique is interleaved practice. People tend to practice in "blocked" form, meaning you might spend 15 minutes on scales, then 20 minutes on piece A, then 20 minutes on piece B, or even 20 minutes just on one difficult passage, before stopping for the day. It turns out that this is not very effective, because your mind checks out and again you end up rehearsing the same solution over and over instead of devising new solutions. Instead, with interleaved practice you might spend just 3 minutes on a scale, then 3 minutes on a passage from piece A, then 3 minutes on a passage from piece B, then go back to 3 minutes on scales and continue that way. When you switch tasks, your focus "resets" and you stay engaged. This also works in sports and many other skills! I'd encourage anyone interested in this to check out the writings of Christine Carter, a musician and performance psychology researcher -- her article "Why the Progress You Make in the Practice Room Seems to Disappear Overnight" is a good intro. It still feels like early days in this field and there are more developments to come that will help us practice more effectively (and enjoyably). Thank you Nahre for sharing great ideas and practical examples!

Very helpful, indeed! You’re developing so much more than the repetitive motion. Actually, the repetitive motion along with some of those arpeggios in the left-hand could be the basis for a composition!

One of My favorite Videos of you, Nahre! Since I‘ve seen it for the first time I’ve been practicing Chopin Etüde n.5, like this, especially its middle part. That works just great!

🍎 I’m still dreaming of having you as my piano teacher 😊. Please keep doing these kind of videos about practicing and other kinds of piano playing tips. I found it very enjoyable and inspiring to watch. And I would also love to hear more about your piano/musical journey.

I appreciate the points you are making here. I might have denied myself to music in my youth but I didn't do so for several reasons, one being that I couldn't imagine myself tolerating the boredom of endless rote repetition in practicing on order to gain the skills to, for example improvise freely with a high level of skill. I knew where I was and where I wanted to be but the path from one to the other looked like more torture than I was willing to endure. I might add (more generally) that there have been a lot of learning-related problems in my life and psyche that could have been solved by improved pedagogy and/or more creativity in my personal learning strategies. Even now, this remains true. I've been thinking about the subject this morning and your video emphasizes some valuable points and suggests others. Thanks.

It is always good to turn on the internet and see healthy piano players setting aside a little time to encourage. Society, I think, appreciates this. I seem to be following woman…. piano players on KZbin (not intentionally) and this woman is one of my favourites. She does her job wonderfully. 🥸

That's very useful advice. As a child, I improvised while practicing passages, but my parents would always tell me to stop goofing around and start practicing “properly”.

I really like that part at 6:37 where you use syncopated rhythms and irregular patterns as a loop. You could make a great well known song with that.

Thanks Nahre, nice tip,I think for me it will also help me get a better grasp of music theory, experimenting with what I can add in here and there to the piece.

I've always enjoyed your way of digesting music and knowing that you check out when you find things boring is quite reassuring. I love music and wish to take it further, but am often not rigorous enough on the technical practice/music theory. Making it fun in this way is something I can see will be very helpful 🍎
