A short guide to memorizing music
1. Read the Music -Look at the key signature and time signature -Look for sections that repeat 2. Find patterns -Many phrases are often 4 bars -Can you find phrases that repeat? 3. Listen to the song, if possible -Read the music while you listen 4. Break the song into smaller parts(phrases) -Notice, you have not even played your instrument yet 5. Practice each phrase slowly and carefully -Striving towards perfect practice is good -Any mistakes made in the beginning will only have to be corrected later 6. Memorize each phrase -Use thoughtful, disciplined practice -Ask your self, "Where is this phrase going?" 7. Put the phrases all together -Do this one piece at a time -Sometimes it is helpful to move from the end back toward the beginning 8. Practice the song all together -Gradually increase the tempo 9. Pretend you are on stage and play your song -Where did you make mistakes? -Go back and work on these areas first 10. Perfect and play a real concert! |
