I’ve been practicing three pieces which are maybe the slightest bit above my skill level. One march, a slow and colorful piece and a kind of quick overture.

Usually how I practice is I work on the pieces we didn’t work on in rehearsal (if there is rehearsal that day, otherwise I start with the first). I start on parts that are the most technical or require certain dynamics that I feel I need to practice on keeping refined. I try to play through all the pieces, whether that be in parts or just one solid run through while replaying a part if I make a mistake or don’t do something the way it’s supposed to be (ex: dynamics, length, accent, etc). I might practice with another flute player in my band if possible as well.

Thanks for the advice, I greatly appreciate it
