This week we're revisiting a short practice tip from three previous expert guest interviews: cellist and composer Bianca d'Avila do Prado, flutist and author Meret Bitticks, and violinist and nonprofit expert consultant Dr. Elizabeth Guerriero. 

Typically at the end of each interview I ask guests what their favorite practice tip or idea is at the time of the interview and its always great to revisit these little nuggets of wisdom on their own - I can't wait for you to listen!
