There are many skills you need to become a great musician such as developing good technique, being good at ear training, and having a good knowledge of music theory. None of these are the Core Skills but they help improve all four. The 4 Core Performance Skills are the 4 types of situations that you might be expected to do in a performance. Most people are better at one than the others, and only a small percentage of musicians take the time to become excellent at all 4. If your practice leads you to develop all 4 skills as well as you can, you are going to find that you understand music from every angle and are the type of flexible musician who will be extremely valuable!

This is the 1st of a 5-part series. In this episode, learn what the 4 skills are and why I chose them. The next 4 episodes will each focus on one skill at a time.
