How to keep it up Five tips to stop your instrument gathering dust
- Book in regular practice slots — put music on your timetable for real. Ten minutes a day beats two hours on a Sunday.
- Keep your instrument in plain sight — a stand or wall hanger makes picking it up second nature.
- Pick one song you really want to nail — and work towards it step by step.
- Play for someone — family, mates or the school band. Nothing motivates like a round of applause.
