Make studies out of difficult sections“I make studies out of difficult sections of pieces. I rarely practice a piece all of the way through. When I create a study, I abstract technical difficulty. In other words, I approach a problem not only as it exists in a piece, but also in an abstract way. For example, I may play a phrase backwards or play it very slowly in a different position on the fretboard.” - Julian Bream Julian Bream is one the most famous classical guitar performers. This quote from his interview was first seen in The Guitar Player Magazine in June 1990. This and other interviews and lessons with greatest guitarists covering past 40 years of guitar history are published in a book The Guitar Player Book – The Ultimate Resource for Guitarists.
