What better way to improve in the practice room than by joining the best musicians in the world while they practice?

Join Principal Trumpet of the Cleveland Orchestra Michael Sachs for an intimate look into how he approaches practicing!


Watch Michael take a deep dive into a number of different aspects of his practicing routine:

  • His preferred warm-up and why he has many different versions of the same routine (including one that's only 5 minutes long!)

  • How long he practices in any given day (probably not as long as you might guess!)

  • His advice for someone who needs to improve their focus in the practice room

  • What tools he uses to help practice

  • How he gets great results in the practice room to translate to performance
