PRACTICE TIP: Play S-L-O-W-L-Y! Do not hurry through a part in the music that you cannot play well. Play each note individually or with a rhythm. Give yourself time to get to the next note correctly. Then add the original rhythm of the piece. Gradually speed up the tempo until you can play the passage flawlessly and up to tempo.
