Music Practice Tip 16: Mindful Repetition
It is so easy to fall into the habit of playing repetitive segments without putting thought and heart into your music. Putting a small breath or space between phrases can highlight them. Varying dynamics, varying tone, tempo and possibly phrasing can add interest. Or keeping the sound exactly the same repeatedly may also be making a point. Just put thought into what your options are, and what kind of feel you want to portray to your listeners. The end result is to communicate a feeling to your audience.
