5 imperative 
practice tips for 
all musician
Michael Yelverton is a great musician who 
helps others to develop their talents by 
connecting with them through his music. 
Being into music and honing your music 
talent needs an abundance of effort and 
time, regardless of whether you are a 
newcomer or have been playing for some 
time. It is useful to be aware of errors, and 
that creating them is a common thing 
when practicing.
1. Create atmosphere
Get the right set-up for you. Whether you 
prefer to concentrate in a quiet practice 
room or somewhere with more stimulation, 
try be consistent with your choice. This will 
help you enter the right mindset when you 
begin to practise.
2. Warm up
Like a physical workout, a warm-up is 
essential. But don’t just plough through 
the same warm-up routine every-time 
and let your mind wander – a warm-up 
isn't just about getting your muscles 
moving. 
3. Have a goal
Playing through all your old music isn’t 
the same as practising. Start with the 
end in mind: by having a goal for each 
practice session before you start 
playing, you will find you progress 
much more quickly and effectively. 
4. Be realistic 
We all grow up with our teachers 
telling us "don’t leave it until the 
night before". We’ve all been guilty 
of it at some point, and if we have 
an intimidating part to practise, it 
is easy to push it to the back of our 
mind.
5. Identify and overcome 
the problems
Don’t just play a piece or passage over 
and over again, and definitely don’t just 
power through a problem area and ignore 
it. Identify where you are stumbling out of 
time or continuously using the wrong 
fingering, work out why it's going wrong, 
then decide how you are going to fix it.
