  1. How to Enjoy Practicing Again

    Every musician experiences seasons when practice feels exciting—and seasons when it feels like a chore. Losing motivation doesn’t mean you’ve lost your passion. More often, it means your routine needs a fresh approach.

    As a music instructor and mentor, I’ve seen students rediscover their love for music after making a few intentional changes. The goal isn’t simply to practice more—it’s to practice in a way that keeps you engaged, challenged, and inspired.

    Here are a few practical ways to make practice enjoyable again.

    1. Remember Why You Started

    Think back to what first inspired you to learn music. Was it a song that moved you, a musician you admired, or the joy of making music?

    Reconnecting with your purpose can reignite your passion.

    2. Set Small, Achievable Goals

    Trying to master everything at once can become overwhelming.

    Instead, focus on one objective at a time: learn a new chord progression, master a difficult passage, improve your rhythm, memorize one verse of a song.

    Small victories build momentum and keep you motivated.

    3. Add Variety to Your Practice

    Avoid doing the same routine every day.

    Mix your sessions by including: technique exercises, ear training, sight-reading, improvisation, learning a favourite song, playing or singing with backing tracks or other musicians.

    Variety keeps practice fresh and enjoyable.

    4. Celebrate Progress

    Don’t focus only on how far you still have to go. Take time to appreciate how much you’ve already improved.

    Record yourself occasionally and compare your progress over time. Growth is often easier to hear when you look back.

    5. Practice with Others

    Music is meant to be shared. Join a choir, play or sing in a band, rehearse with friends, or participate in group lessons. Making music with others often renews enthusiasm and builds confidence.

    6. Create a Consistent Routine

    You don’t need to practice for hours every day.

    Even 20–30 minutes of focused practice can produce remarkable progress when done consistently. A sustainable routine is far more effective than occasional marathon sessions.

    7. Be Patient with Yourself

    Some days will feel productive, while others may not. That’s part of learning.

    Don’t let one difficult practice session discourage you. Progress is measured over weeks and months, not by a single day.

    Conclusion

    The joy of music isn’t found only in reaching your goals—it’s found in the journey of becoming better with every practice session.

    When you practice with purpose, curiosity, and consistency, the routine becomes more than an obligation. It becomes an opportunity to grow, create, and discover new possibilities.

    Fall in love with the process, and the results will follow.

    Reflection

    What one change could you make this week that would make your practice sessions more enjoyable and more meaningful?

    “The musicians who enjoy the journey are the ones who stay long enough to discover how far their dedication can take them. Learn to love the process, and excellence will become a natural result.” — Victor Adenola

  2. The Perfect Instrument to Start With

    One of the first questions aspiring musicians and parents ask is, “Which instrument is the best to start with?”

    The answer may be surprising: there is no single perfect instrument—only the right instrument for the right learner.

    As a music instructor and mentor, I’ve taught students who began with the piano, guitar, drums, violin, saxophone, and voice. I’ve discovered that success depends less on the instrument itself and more on the learner’s interest, commitment, and quality of instruction.

    The best instrument is one that inspires you to keep learning.

    1. Start with Your Interest

    Passion is a powerful motivator.

    If you enjoy the sound of the violin, you’ll be more excited to practice it. If you’re fascinated by the drums or inspired by the piano, let that interest guide your decision.

    Learning becomes more enjoyable when you genuinely love the instrument.

    2. Consider Your Goals

    Ask yourself these questions;

    • Do you want to play in a church band or orchestra?
    • Do you dream of becoming a music producer?
    • Would you like to accompany yourself while singing?
    • Are you preparing for music examinations or a professional career?

    Your goals can help determine the most suitable starting point.

    3. The Piano Is an Excellent Foundation

    If you’re unsure where to begin, the piano is one of the best instruments to start with.

    It helps you understand: Music Theory, Rhythm, Melody, Harmony, Ear training, and Sight-reading.

    Many professional musicians who play other instruments first developed their musical foundation through the piano.

    4. Every Instrument Develops Unique Skills

    Each instrument offers something valuable:

    • Piano builds a strong overall musical foundation.
    • Voice develops musicianship and expressive communication.
    • Guitar is versatile and ideal for accompaniment and songwriting.
    • Drums strengthen rhythm, timing, and coordination.
    • Violin develops precision, listening skills, and musical sensitivity.
    • Saxophone enhances breath control, tone production, and musical expression.

    There is no “superior” instrument—each contributes to your growth in different ways.

    5. Choose Commitment Over Convenience

    The instrument you choose is only the beginning.

    Progress comes through consistent practice, quality instruction, patience, discipline, and willingness to learn from mistakes

    A committed learner will often achieve more than someone with a better instrument but little dedication.

    Conclusion

    The perfect instrument is not simply the one that looks impressive or is most popular. It is the one that aligns with your passion, supports your goals, and motivates you to keep growing.

    Don’t spend months searching for the “perfect” instrument while delaying your musical journey. Start where you are, learn with intention, and allow your skills to grow one lesson at a time.

    The instrument may begin your journey—but your dedication will determine where it leads.

    Reflection

    If you could begin learning any instrument today without fear or limitation, which one would you choose, and what first step can you take this week?

  8. On today's new episode of The Tonearm Podcast, saxophonist Alden Hellmuth discusses her new album 'Tether, which revolves around two bass players carving out separate sonic spaces while staying locked to a shared pulse.

    Much of the conversation centers on 'Tether''s compositional method and how a DIY gig at a Non Plus Ultra, plus a steady diet of Deerhoof and the Japanese punk band Otoboke Beaver, influenced her take on jazz. Hellmuth also talks about what it meant to study at the Herbie Hancock Institute under Ambrose Akinmusire and Herbie Hancock himself, and how that mentorship reframed her music-making.

    It's a fun and enlightening episode — be sure to tune in: podcast.thetonearm.com/alden-h

    Beim „jazzklub #12“ befinden wir uns schon mitten im Vorsommer (2025) und es ist entsprechend hell und heiß und trotzdem gut besucht.

    Das mag womöglich auch an Thomas Gruss gelegen haben, der zum einen als Saxophonlehrer am halleschen Konservatorium „Georg Friedrich Händel“ dafür sorgt, daß junge Talente nicht den Mut verlieren, zum anderen aber auch bei der „GOOD OL’ BLUES BROTHERS BOYS BAND“ das Jailhouse oder jeden anderen Tanzsaal rockt.

    Auszug aus den Show-Notes:

    Beim zehnten „jazzklub“ befinden wir uns schon mitten im Mai (2025) und dementsprechend ist die Stimmung frühlingshaft bis sommerlich, was nicht zuletzt an Christopher Kunz lag, der nicht nur verschiedene Saxophone spielte, sondern auch die Moderation des Abends übernommen hat. Außerdem erklingt, neben einer Eigenkompostion, auch eine Uraufführung eines seiner neuesten Songs...

  15. /// nach einer längeren Pause gibt's nun endlich wieder eine neue "Serendipity-Spezial"-Sendung - und zwar "Serendipity-Spezial featuring „Jazzklub“ #08 ~ Martin Hanisch & Claudius Stallbaum ~ im Pierre Grasse"

    >>> radiyan.uber.space/serendipity

    Die achte Ausgabe des „jazzklubs“ besticht nicht nur durch die exquisite Auswahl der Songs, die von keinen Geringeren als Wayne Shorter, John Coltrane, Thelonius Monk, Charlie Parker und Sam Rivers stammen, sondern auch durch ein überaus unterhaltsames Gespräch mit Martin Hanisch, der, neben diversen Holzblasinstrumenten, auch Gitarre bei den „Oschies“ spielt.

    In diesem „jazzklub“ spielt er allerdings Tenor-Saxophon, zusammen mit Claudius Stallbaum, der das Alt-Saxophon bedient. Und – wie sich herausstellt – spielen die Beiden zum ersten Mal seit 17 Jahren wieder miteinander.

    Außerdem ist Jonas Schneider am Schlagzeug mehr als bloß die Vertretung von Hannes Lingens, sondern eine willkommene Abwechslung im rhythmischen Bereich.

    Abgerundet wird das Ganze durch Albrecht Brandt, der mit seinem Kontrabass nicht nur das Fundament des Groove besorgt, sondern auch heiter und lehrreich durch den Abend moderiert.

    Martin Hanisch – Tenor Saxophone

    Claudius Stallbaum – Alto Saxophone

    Albrecht Brandt – Double Bass

    Jonas Schneider – Drums

  25. Random Thoughts

    I am wrapping up my lunch break on this random Wednesday in March and I thought I’d jot down a couple of thoughts for posterity. Ready? Okay, let’s roll….

    • Want to know something that sucks? I brought two ounces of Planters Salted Peanuts with me for lunch today (14 grams of protein). I took a small handful (my gastric bypassed body can’t handle more than a small handful at a time without getting sick) and popped it into my maw. I chewed it up a little (again, part of the post-gastric bypass world means chewing the holy hell out of everything, which sounds silly and obvious [like, didn’t you chew the holy hell out of everything before surgery? I thought I did, but apparently not] but until you fail to chew something down enough you can’t really understand) and suddenly and without warning I had to sneeze. Know what’s gross? Sneezing with a mouthful of partially chewed up peanuts… that’s what’s gross. Worse? 20 seconds after you sneeze, when you think you’ve recovered and cleaned up the mess… you sneeze again. Ugh.
    • Elon Musk posted to his nazi social media site that he didn’t understand why people are out to get him. He said he sells things that are good and that he’s never hurt anyone. Never hurt anyone? Are you fucking kidding me, you fucking moron? This nazi fucker’s end can’t come soon enough. Deport his moronic ass to mars and be done with it.
    • We have a contractor coming tomorrow. We have two contractors coming Friday. March 2025 will go down in family history as the month of the contractors. We just can’t get away from them. Please please please let this be the end of it for a while.
    • We are one week and one day away from the start of the Boston Red Sox 2025 season. No matter what happens, they can’t be any more painful to watch than the Bruins were this year. Even if they come in dead last again it still won’t suck as badly as the B’s. I’m thinking about signing up for an online subscription to NESN (the New England Sports Network. The TV network that carries both the Red Sox and the Bruins). I think my days of being a radio-only Red Sox fan might be coming to an end. I haven’t decided one way or the other yet, but I think it’s going to happen… we’ll see.
    • I don’t want to buy a tenor saxophone. I don’t want to buy a tenor saxophone. Did I mention I don’t want to buy a tenor saxophone? Who am I kidding. I want to buy a tenor saxophone. Only if it’s a good one though. Aw, hell.

    Okay. I have to get back to work now. This is all I have time for right now. I’ll probably write up some more brain droppings later. It’s one of those days, if you know what I mean.

  27. Saxophone?

    Do do do, just whistling past the american graveyard again… still… do do do…

    I’ve been listening to King Crimson’s Red album quite a bit over the last few days. Crimson, in their original incarnation, had a sax player. First it was Ian McDonald, then it was Mel Collins. When band leader Robert Fripp shook things up and hired a whole new band with a drastically new sound in 1972 the saxophones went away. For a while, at least. By 1974, when they were recording the Red album, they were down to three band members, Fripp (guitar/mellotron), John Wetton (bass/vocals), and Bill Bruford (drums/percussion). Fripp was the only soloist in the lineup… sort of… the other two guys could have cranked out leads with the best of them (because they pretty much were the best of them) but instead they brought in a bunch of session musicians to help fill in the gaps. Among those session musicians were two sax players; Ian McDonald (alto) and Mel Collins (soprano).

    Collins plays on the album’s centerpiece, “Starless” and his playing is wonderful (as always). McDonald also plays on “Starless” as well as “One More Red Nightmare”. His playing is out of the fucking world amazing. He wails, especially on “Starless”.

    Listening to this record quite a bit lately has me thinking… is the sax playing inspiring me a little? The RPM Challenge is less than two weeks away and it’s coming up on time for me to start recording some new music. Do I suddenly find myself wanting to play the saxophone again? I haven’t taken my alto sax out of its case since I finished the 2020 RPM Challenge. Five years. Is it time to break it out again? I think it might be. I know I can still play even if I am only about 1% of the sax player I was when I was a music major from 1989-1991 and sax was my primary instrument in school. Guitar was a hobby I played on the side, even though I spent nearly infinitely more time playing guitar than sax… which contributed to me leaving school before I graduated.

    So I guess what I am trying to say is, if throughout the month of February you start hearing about me writing songs in the key of E flat or B flat instead of E and A, and you start hearing me complain about severe pain in my lips and jaw (due to not having practiced at all in the last five years), then we can probably go ahead and blame Mel Collins and the late Ian McDonald. Just saying.

  28. Rest in peace, sax legend David Sanborn.

    This will always be my favorite moment from his storied career. His alto sax playing on this song is super human.
