Chapter
6 Summary: Apply pressure to yourself by finding
opportunities to perform and record yourself before the
audition. When you record yourself and listen back
critically, use fundamentals to fix the problem spots.
If you don't have a full 3 months to practice, be sure
you have a good quality sound, then technical accuracy,
and then and only then, speed.
