Liz Garnett makes the lemons of a bad rehearsal day into lemonade:When things don’t go right, that forces us to pay more attention to how to do what we’re aiming for. We have to think more diagnostically, and listen more carefully to what the choir is struggling with. We have identify more precisely what the obstacles are and give clearer, more specific instructions about what to do to overcome them. We have to become both more analytical and more inventive in our rehearsal methods.
She argues that the progress in a rehearsal which is a struggle throughout is more long-lasting.
Nothing completely original, but a good reminder.
