Scientifically, I understand that doing this five day routine puts the information in your long term memory. In later years he shared with me that he had read that these units or chunks stay in the short-term memory for six hours, so if he practiced at 9 AM, 3 PM, 9 PM and then slept (where learning is still occurring), repeating this sequence for five days, he could put all the chunks together and play at an even higher level. He continued with this method throughout his career. Debost wondered why Crunelle insisted on this but decided to give it a try and was surprised at how quickly and how well he learned the music. On the day before his lesson, he was to put the chunks together and play the piece in performance tempo. Each unit was to be played in performance tempo. Michel Debost, former professor at Paris Conservatory and Oberlin Conservation, shared with me that when he first studied at the Conservatory, his teacher Gaston Crunelle suggested he practice in small units with a silence in between in learning new rep.

I understand that elementary schools are now teach reading in chunks as we do in music education. Unfortunately, most of us were not taught to read words or music like this when we were children. This is repeated many times throughout the etude or solo. Then the eye hops to the next fixation taking in no information in the hop. In a fraction of a second, this information or chunk is transported to short term memory. Why is chunking by four or six notes important? Our brains read in one-inch circles called fixations.

Chunking by one-inch is the important thing here. We would love to hear about any great teaching ideas that you have by writing to us at is Chunking? by Patricia GeorgeĬhunking is a practice technique in which you play one-inch of notes (4 sixteenths in simple meter, 6 sixteenths in compound meter) followed by a sip breath.
