* Each member of expected to listen and learn their own part from the reference
material.
* Each member should learn the context of their part relative to the music as a
whole. "How does my part serve the music?"
* Corporate practice should have a defined agenda.
* Two phases to learning material:
- Learn pieces piecemeal. Focus deeply on each section.
- Highlights. Hit the intros, transitions, endings. Review rough parts.
