I prefer to work out a charge that includes the concert or examination. That way, if we need to do a little more work to get something challenging right, the musician need not have reservations about needing more practice time. If the accompaniment is very difficult, I'll factor it into a charge before starting work and then stick to it. I am not a counter of minutes but the quality of performance is of paramount importance to me.
