The process of practicing is intrinsic to musical creativity.
Practicing may primarily be thought of as technical, but it is
often also musically meaningful, including elements of
interpretation, improvisation, and/or composition. The practice
room can be a space in which to explore a field of creative
possibilities, a place to experiment and to refine ideas.
To date, the literature on practice has been primarily
pedagogical and psychological. Little attention is paid to the
significance of practice, and especially to the role of embodied
experience of understanding gained through doing in the forming of
musical ideas. The Practice of Practising is primarily concerned
with considering practicing as a practice in itself: a collection
of processes that determines musical creativity and significance.
The volume comprises four diverse case studies, in relation to
music by J. S. Bach, Elliott Carter, Alfred Schnittke, and Morton
Feldman, presenting both solo and ensemble perspectives."
