Warm Up Routines
Just like, you don't want to just take off and run as fast as you can. You should ease into to it to prevent injuries and perform at an optimal level.
Warm Up, Stretching, Limbering Up …
Whatever you call it — it's how do you, what do you do to get ready for a performance, practice session.
Just as a running would just jump right in a start a race, they always (or should) warm up a bit right before the race. Get the juices rolling and engine warmed up

Songs
If you are getting ready for a performance or recording session. I simply focus on whatever I'm going to be performing, my repertoire and the areas and parts of any particular songs that I know
might give me trouble. One great saying I give all my students is:
Fast is nothing more than slow — quicker.
So, DO NOT practice to try anything that you can't do slow.
Another one of my sayings is:
Your fingers are not going to do anything they have NOT done before.
Remember, the fingers can't hear or see music, they will only do what they are told. And, they will do something if they don't get the right message.

Technique
Updated: 01 Jan 2003
Musical technique is simply the physical aspect of playing a musical instrument. The ability to exert efficient, optimal control in order to produce the precise musical effects that are desired. Improving one's technique generally entails practicing exercises that improve one's muscular sensitivity and agility. Technique is independent of musicality.
