>>Chimerian: Instead of humming if you play a one handed instrument and you find the correct song you should also learn performance but it also seems to depend what the relationship is between your performance and athletics.

You will only learn performance if the song you're playing is appropriately challenging. (Due to years of playing zills, many players are likely in a situation where their performance grossly outranks their athletics. In those cases, a song that trains athletics will likely be too easy to train performance.)
