Practice tips for playing at 134 BPM
Here the goal is evenness, not speed. Practise with the metronome on eighth or sixteenth notes so you can hear any unevenness immediately. Build up in steps of five or ten BPM, never more, and give yourself time at each level. If your accuracy drops going up, you went too far — come back down and repeat the step. Use the speed trainer built into the metronome for exactly this.
