How to practise effectively with violinist Ray Chen
Description
Our guest in this episode is none other than our September 2024 cover star, Ray Chen. If you’re one of his many followers on social media, you’ll know that the violinist has his own community-based practice app, Tonic, which aims to make practising a little less lonely and more collaborative.
In this episode, Ray and online editor Davina chat about how to get the most out of your practice, including Ray’s previous experiences practising when he was younger, managing your time and psychology, as well as why we shouldn’t neglect practising performance.
