Professor Pizka,
I am maybe going to quit band next year, and join ROTC (sortof like
the Army...but not combat training.) becuase you get ALOT of credits for
highschool graduation. The problem is though, I wish I could take a course were you
get 1 and a half hours of only solid practicing.....but no such course. I'd
have to fit all my practicing in after school (3pm.)... Any advice on how to do
this? Currently i practice after school from 3:30pm-6 or 7pm, but I hear
practicing should BE SPACED.
Michael
