I do not play any longer. When I did I used to practice at a minimum one hour a day, and usually two hours.

I was a music major in college. We were required to practice 3 hours a day, in addition to all of our normal ensembles and classes.
When I'm not required to practice, I usually end up playing anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour each day.

I 'twirk it whenever if feel the need! :D
by Anonymous on January 1st, 2009
Actually, I play two hours a day.
And that means 14 hours in a week :p Plus I play the piano, what do you play?
But I play the flute, guitar and the clarinet too :P
It's not that easy to have everything in the same time so I'll say in a schedule:
1 hour (a day) Piano adn clarinet
2 hours flute and guitar (because it's much more funnier to play them :))
Haha, maybe that's why I'm studying in a musicschool :P
by CaRbOnPrOdUcK is Baccuss on December 31st, 2008
I play my instrument daily, at around the same time, the regular attention to practice helps me stay tuned into the parts I need to be paying more attention to and practicing on.
by treblemaker on December 31st, 2008
I practice the piano usually 6 or 7 days a week. I don't really know for how long, though. Some days I could practice for hours and some days, I don't know, maybe 15-30 minutes? I play my guitar maybe once or twice a week. I play my violin every once in a while for fun. I took violin for about 5 years but I'm not as serious about it as the piano.
by urk on December 31st, 2008
I used to play 8-10 hours per day, but I'm in a funk so I don't even pull my instruments out of their cases right now. It's been a while.
by Arisztid on December 31st, 2008
I like to practice my instrument as often as possible until it gets sore.
Real answer:
When I was playing the violin I practiced about 2 hours a day because I enjoyed it. I did not consider it practice, I considered it just plain old playing the violin.
by Mephistopheles on December 31st, 2008
Oh, baby! I play my banjo all the time...
by Secretive on December 31st, 2008
i used to practice the keyboard for 4 hours a day but if just singing is more than four hours but after that I don't talk much
by vigier on December 31st, 2008
i play atleast play atleast 3 or more hours a day somtimes not full on practice but i never go a day without playing.
i am a music teacher i also play in bands and study music at uni. so if i added up the hours i had my guitar in my hands it would be close to 12 hours.
but as for proper turn phone off and lock the door practice id say i do about 3 hours a day nowerdays. i used to practice alot more when i was younger

I like to practice on Saturdays and I usually practice until I run out of either blackpowder or round balls.
by Woanellie on December 27th, 2008
When ever the mood strikes me, its the key to not getting sick of it ;)

WHEN I WAS A CHILD ,I PRACTISED PIANO EVERY DAY.TEDIOUS BUT VERY USEFUL TO SKILL PROGRESS .personal satisfaction will be gained from a success after time-long practicing
by practicetraxx on August 3rd, 2010
Everyday for about 1 hour a day. It gets boring practicing scales with a metronome.
I use the rhythm tracks in a variety of modern music styles. It has help me develop rhythm and timing. Best of all, the tracks were created with a drone in each key to allow you to check your intonation and work on your ear training. This is invaluable in helping you to play or sing in tune and to hear intervals.

If asked to play, do you perform only music that you like or do you also have a catalogue of songs that appeal to others more than yourself?
