You know, the main difference is that when we first try to rehearse new music together we all play off of a lead sheet so everyone is trying to make up their parts on the spot!<BR/><BR/>I love hearing about other people "missing music" problems! Hehehe!<BR/><BR/>Oh, and congratulations on your paid vacation to the beach!<BR/><BR/>Janna for the Bisceglia FamilyBisceglia Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09028034566292319657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6842333723531268784.post-37026785939219706182008-11-09T22:14:00.000-08:002008-11-09T22:14:00.000-08:00Answers to the questions:1. To be honest we have b...Answers to the questions:<BR/><BR/>1. To be honest we have been having a hard time finding times to practice together. David is enrolled in school full time, Justin and Eric are still working through their High school studies, and I'm....well booking concerts and practicing. ;-) The schedule we are trying right now is rehearsals Monday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Plus practice without David on Tuesday's and Thursday's. The weekday rehearsals run around 1 - 1 1/2 hours. Friday's are when we receive coaching from, our music Mom, Cindy Petty and that's normally 2 hours. Saturday and Sunday practices run at least 1 1/2 hours. We push for 2+ if we can.<BR/><BR/>2. From what I understand, (I'm in and out a lot so I don't know for sure on this)Eric and Justin are practicing about 45 minutes to 1 hour daily right now. This will increase as the weeks go on and should be up to 1 1/2 hours by December. I have no idea if David is even practicing on his own right now do to finals preparation. He will practice a lot to get caught up over winter break. I practice at least 2 - 3 hours a day. I would like to get that up higher but my lower back hasn't healed enough to play more then 5-7 hours a day so in order to do quartet rehearsals I have to cut down on personal practice. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for your great questions! Everyone should feel free to post their questions and we will gladly post the answers for you. <BR/><BR/>- Joshua KnoppJoshuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02190749601221928310noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6842333723531268784.post-33804743904379983892008-11-08T23:59:00.000-08:002008-11-08T23:59:00.000-08:00Thanks. :-) You guys sound great for just a second...Thanks. :-) You guys sound great for just a second read through.
