Tom de Vree (born in 1939) served more than 22 years as instructor for the Departments of Violin and Conducting as well as 12 years as director for the Department of String Instruments at the Music School in Rotterdam (Netherlands), which in its time was considered the largest in Europe. Since 1972, he has taught at the Academy of Music in Tilburg (Netherlands), where he holds lectures on Educational Principles of Music Instruction, in particular.

This booklet was conceived to give practical advice to people, regardless of age, who play music actively and therefore are engaged in practicing. It presents easily understandable remarks, tips, and instructions how to counteract effectively the numerous and typical problems of practicing (such as stage fright, weak concentration, disinclination, fear of examinations, and learning by heart). Thus, the reader can devise a practice method that is ideal for him - one that saves him time and ensures success.
