Practice will Never Make Perfect

This is the dilemma: is it better to work on something difficult, that you'll never be able to master, or to stick to things at your level? My answer is implicit in my approach.

The Mozart duets for two flutes that I've been working on for quite a while are too hard for me. I'll never be able to play them well enough to perform them. At best I'll be able to make my way through it with my teacher, stopping now and then when I stumble.

But I'm working on great music.
