Sean,
Maybe for you, it takes 6-8 hours a day to practice. But I've been told by every teacher I've ever had that that much time per day on a horn will be counter-productive. I've heard these same remarks echoed by Toby Hanks, and other professionals that I've talked to at masterclasses/conferences. I guess this whole thing should have "your mileage may vary" attached to it.
Sincerely,
Andy Smith
