Abstract
Instrumental practice is key in a musician’s education and presents challenges that go beyond technical mastery. This article analyzes how motivation, self-regulation, and practice strategies influence the quality of musical learning. From a theoretical approach, it proposes an integrative view of practice as an active, reflective, and personal process. It highlights that connecting meaningful goals with effective strategies enhances students’ engagement and autonomous development. Finally, it argues for an educational approach that fosters metacognition and autonomy, guiding practice toward a comprehensive and meaningful formative experience.
