I sing all the time when practicing at the piano and find my practice time off the piano essential. You play what your mind and heart decided: so before sitting at the piano, figure out what you want to hear! I couldn’t agree more with this!

It reminds me of something I read, many years ago, in one of the "memoirs" of Glenn Gould. The book was relating, from when Gould was still giving live performances about how he had been called at the last minute to perform - I believe - the Grieg Piano Concerto. Gould hadn't played it in years, but - he read through the score on the plane and, thanks to the fact that he had a photographic memory, he was able to play through it (I assume virtually perfectly) once he arrived and began rehearsing. When I performed (classical guitar) my teacher was a strong believer in practising "off of the instrument" - I would go through my pieces, finger them completely off of the guitar - and be able to play them all the better the next time I sat down with the instrument. Some of my best practising was done that way, I'm certain of that fact.
