musicians need a lot of "training"
 
Hi dear members!

I�ve got a question and I�m sure you can help me.

One of my students said that "to be a musician you needed a lot of training" and this sentence has been in my head since then. I would have used "practising " instead of "training" but I want to be sure that "training " is not correct.
What do you think?

Thanks in advance

My brother-in-law is a musician in the Galician Philharmonic Orchestra and I would say that some musicians do training as well as practising because they need to learn new methods, instruments or compositions. Although, I suspect that your student has translated �entrenar � directly and actually means that musicians need to practice a lot.

you need a lot of training before you become one:) and then you practise and rehearse.
