No, it's great, thanks!
Mr. Sulliman really understands what's going on in our heads and how to leverage it to get to the goal of playing a difficult passage correctly in the shortest amount of time.
I have tried this, but not understood WHY, until I watched this video, the technique has the validity it does. With this mindset I'm going to go back and retry this approach.
It's also helped me understand how when someone asks me to play a hard passage I can nail at tempo, at a different even slower speed, I screw up.
I've always felt to really play a passage that I should be able to play it at tempo and slower accurately...but maybe that's wasted time, and maybe being able to play it accurately at tempo is enough, especially since there is only so much time in a day.
