William VerMeulen | Applying Scales to Repertoire
William VerMeulen Translating scale practice into actual orchestral repertoire is a crucial step in developing as a musician. Use scales as a tool to address specific challenges in your orchestral music. For example, if a particular passage requires fast, accurate playing, practice the relevant scale at the required tempo to build the necessary technical skills.
Additionally, apply the same principles of
scale practice to excerpts from orchestral pieces. Analyze the musical phrases
and patterns, and practice scales that align with these elements. This targeted
approach will help in transferring the skills developed during scale practice
to real-world performance scenarios.
