The thoughts, adventures, and ramblings of a music teacher and working musician.


Happy Labor Day Weekend

It’s a busy weekend to close out the tourist season for Lisa Young & Co.

Tonight it’s the Bridgewater Inn Bridgewater NH then Sunday a private party on Lake Winnipesaukee followed by the last show of the season for the Town Docks in Meredith NH. We hope you all have a great Labor day Weekend and please try to get out and support live music.

Peace and good tunes to you D. Patrick

Practice Tip #2

Practice in an area with as few distractions as possible. Make sure the TV or stereo is turned off, and if possible the ringer on the phone as well. I am fortunate; I am able to practice in an area that has natural lighting from a fair sized picture window. Before you start relax for a moment, take a couple of cleansing breaths, and try to clear your mind of any outside thoughts. Take 30 seconds and look at your music or lesson, hear it and visualize it in your head … there, you’re ready … have a great practice.

Peace and good (practice) tunes to you, D. Patrick
