Re: Interleaved Practice

I haven't reviewed the links, but yes, I use interleaved practicing sometimes. It's been very effective and efficient, but I don't really enjoy it in it's full application. I mostly use it if I'm under time pressure to get something learned.

I use a lighter form of it more often - if I have several technical passages within a piece that need work, I'll rotate at intervals as small as one time through each passage, applying whatever practice methods or metronome speeds I'm using that day. This can be fun especially with similar passages. I had a student do this recently with the three downward triplet runs in the last movement of the Saint-Saens, increasing the metronome slightly each time they moved to a new passage. It got the job done and the work held over time.
