Dalam proses pembentukan suatu lagu yang akan dimainkan oleh sebuah paduan angklung, maka proses latihan (sampai saat ini) masih dianggap sebagai suatu proses yang cukup menentukan bagi keberhasilan paduan tersebut dalam membawakan lagu.

Lebih jauh latihan yang berkesinambungan (rutin) dan terprogram akan membentuk suatu paduan/ team angklung ke tingkat ketrampilan yang lebih 'tinggi' atau beberapa orang menyebut sebagai tingkat 'mutakhir', karena pada tingkat ini kemampuan pemain sudah sangat baik antara lain memiliki ketrampilan membaca not dalam partitur sehingga latihan akan berlangsung singkat dan pembawaan lagu lebih ekspresif.
