Excellent thread, guys! For my tuppenceworth, I reckon John Hardly's and Justa Picker's last postings underline the big question here. It's been said a hundred times here today, and it'll be said a lot more, the only way to learn to play fast is to work really hard at it. But before you go to what is always a lot of effort, ask yourself why you want to play fast. It can be impressive, but only if done right. And, like most things, in moderation. Don't get fooled into thinking music's a competiton. Be appropriate. Sorry, I didn't mean to sermonize quite that much. I'm new here. Hi :)
