Re: Okay, so it's only at 60--but I couldn't play it at all yesterday (for JohnT

I use the metronome technique myself, but recently I was at a masterclass given by Alex Klein (only in the audience, I hasten to add!), and he said he'd recently given up on the metronome. Now when he has to learn something fast, he learns it fast - but broken up, a little at a time. (If I understood him right.) His thinking was that if your brain learns it slow, when it comes to play it fast, it will always try to go back to playing it slow.

Not sure I'm entirely convinced, but it's an interesting thought.
