In practical work, the question always arises how

Exactly the body gets this astonishing one in virtuoso play

Speed. Decades ago

Medical students who were with me for guitar lessons,

Calculated that this is because of the

to play quickly. Not to mention the response time. It

So in the course of the learning process, others have to

Nerve circuits take place as the initial: -

Fingeles feel strings - nerve sends it to the brain - brain

says pull off - nerve sends command to the finger - finger makes pull

Off.

In fact, we have to learn a new run, lick, picking first. This takes place in the left half of the brain that controls the conscious, cognitive processes. The process of practicing can be connected to the affective processes that take place in the right half of the brain. The pyramidal nervous system **, which is responsible for fine motor skills and arbitrary motor skills, creates a new faster (shorter) nerve relocation. There is a reflex sheet ***, which best over just one synapse **** The shortest connection between the effector (nerve, which forwards a stimulus from the central nervous system to the organs and triggers a reaction there) and receptor (nerve that is stimulating forwarded from the central nervous system to the organs and triggers a reaction there). An unconscious action pattern is created that the musician can call up as required.

If you watch experienced musicians in quick processes, you notice that they don't look at their fingers at that moment. And for a good reason. When watching the left, conscious brain might get involved and mess up everything. While the conditioned action patterns take place, the left, conscious brain remains in a kind of mental anticipation of the next movement sequence. The transition from controlled actions to conditioned reflexes is always fluid, but if it is very heavy action patterns, you sometimes have to jump mentally, the musical timing sometimes hangs on a hundredth of a second.

In view of these processes, we have to completely re -interpret our training methods and learning processes.

  There are basic requirements such as mobility and

Hand muscles, musicality etc. that need to be acquired. In the

  Then the internal process begins. After my

Experience needs to practice a completely new,

fine motor movement sequence 800-1200 slowly played

Repetitions, depending on ... fingering and previous knowledge.

That sounds a lot, but when you consider that you are in 1 minute

easily accommodates 10 movements, that's 100 in 10 minutes

So a total of effective 120 minutes distributed over a week

16 minutes a day. The most stressed person also has this
