A FELLO MUSICIAN REQUIRES HELP

DIZZY DRUMMER · 04 Mar 2005, 07:34

Calling all musicians out there.

Can anyone give me some advice - suggestions (proper ones

)

As most of you are probaby aware - I am learning to play the drums. However - I am given new work to learn every other week or so.

How can I remember what I have to learn. Is there a nack to it & I can't see it??? How do you learn & retain the info - movements???

I have a piece of music now that I have to learn & play for 5 minutes tomorro

I know the music - no problem - but keep getting the sticking wrong -

I'm soooo frustrated (Is it just me ages

)

PLEASE HELP

I never call all musicians out there, that would be impolite. Suppose they do. Every one? You should download my chat robot software.

I dont want to waste your time Fa, I can help in all ways.....with regards to the frustration bit

.

Why not tape record what you have to do and play it when your sleeping

Fred · 04 Mar 2005, 23:37

What would you rather be doing? You and your regards to the frustration bit wink wink. Becuase you asked me to.

maybe you are not such a musician as you think you are hahaha. No, it is just a mather of remebering, just a feeling i guess. When you practise it a lot, you will remember it, you can play it out of your mind... Just don't know if there is really a trick for it.

Tim - I know I am not much of a musician

Thanks for that comment

Gerry - That is not a bad idea

Gez · 08 Mar 2005, 17:53
