[TPIN] Advice for practice?

[Paul Ayick]

SCHLOSSBERG! If you can find the time to take 2 studies from each 
section daily and play them as writen and PERFECTLY you will get better 
provided you are not playing with some glaringly bad lip formation or 
breathing short coming. I studied with Carmine, Roy Stevens (the worst) 
and on my own have looked ito a dozen "chop" methods (Reinhardt, Callet, 
etc. etc. etc...............IMO it's all an illusion. The basics are 
what will you get you there.I think Leon's book is great too. I think we
have in a sense become overloeaded with concepts and systems that we 
have overly complicated bloeing into a damn brass tube.
