 Re: Was my lack of improvement of my tone quality my fault or my teacher’s fault?

I agree with much of what Karl has said. The "listening" on your part should be in real time (a bio-feedback loop if you will). Real listening must be objective (not just self critical). You must assess moment to moment what you like and don't like. If there are things you like, what is it that you do to execute those things? Can you do more of that? The objectionable things are the opposite of that. What did I do to get THAT sound?? How can I avoid that next time.



As for teachers, I would recommend going to as many different teachers (master classes, recitals............well, not now of course) as possible. My feeling is that a certain word one teacher uses in place of another teacher could completely open up your understanding of what you need to do to improve. I saw that happen with one student of mine where I felt I was beating my head against the wall. The student spoke to an previous teacher who just used a different way to describe something.........and low and behold, the student came back to the next lesson wondering why I never mentioned "blank." I cannot remember what the concept or word was but I had been harping on it for weeks!
