One day, before COVID, I got to hear Valentina Lisitsa perform Rach 3, and I got to join the throng at the meet 'n' greet afterwards, and when I went to take a selfie with her, I got frustrated fiddling with my camera. There had to have been about 100 people waiting behind me, and to my surprise, Ms. Lisitsa was very cool and Zen about it. She took a breath, smiled and said "take your time", which sounded a bit like life advice as well as encouragement. Now you're saying I can sound like a pro if I take my time, so it WAS life advice! If only we could do something about this "having to practice" thing... :)

Extremely useful tips and rather rare ones! I think the first tip is my favourite: among having a good sense of phrasing, the dynamic definitely brings the musicality to a whole new world. This is also what makes practicing classical music so much more enjoyable and creative. It brings confidence to the pianist, considerably lowering nervousness the execution isn't the primary sight anymore.

[@Nonononono213]

The tips with the pedal is very usefull. Its the best way to also know if your fingering are good and if you dont hold the notes only with pedal. Its like playing harpsichord.

[@xthetansiblingsx5405]

Tips: Go slow, very slowly and aim to finish the pieces. Get the beat right, slowly refine dynamics. I had a lot of mistakes, I could just practice one bar for an hour just to get things right. Once I hit that I would move on. I maybe slow, but I believe I can do it with the right technique and dynamics

[@rossalthor]

Slow and steady wins the race. Grind it out. Practice every day. Even if you only have a few minutes every day, if you practice, at least that much, after 10 years you will be amazing.

[@onemanfran]

I wish that was the case for me...

[@321bigbang]

Thank you ! It's tip 1 for me : more dynamic ! 🎹🎵🎶

[@reallynotpc]

Love your tips, especially about the pedal. One of my own, which would be much more useful if I did it ten times as often, is to record my playing and then play it back. Makes my realise that my brain is a very powerful filter, and that what it hears is not what the microphone or audience hears.

[@jeremiahthompson82]

Thanks so much for the video. I will love for you to continue this series on sounding like a pro. Good video.

I really like your chanel! I used to play piano as a kid at a very high level, something like you, judging from the video you uploaded when you were 12. Everyone thought I would persue it as a career as concert pianist due my interpretation style but then.. life happens and I quit playing when I was 11.. Now as an adult I picked it up again and it's crazy how fast it comes back after so many years. Your videos refresh my knowledge and upgrade my practice :)

Ten tokens on the side of the piano. Each time you play correctly move a token to the other side of the piano. By the time you get to token 10 your concentration and attention is epic because if you get it wrong you have to replace all the tokens and start again!

[@IamJohn0808]

The bloopers though! 😆

[@AL-pu7ux]

Not rushing at the end of phrases is a pro tip for sure. The extra pro tip is the ends of phrases need to be rounded out and respected just as much as the beginning of phrases. Along these lines, banging out or chopping off the end of a phrase is bad!

[@DMABEATS]

Hahahah Love the bloopers at the end

Dynamics give life to a piece, playing just the notes you see will make the piece feel lifeless. And dynamics allow you to make a piece your own.

You are right

IF you think i didnt practice ur wrong i practice almost everyday 2-3 hours or even more depending on how badly my hands hurt afterwards xD and thx for this vid btw it rly helped me out:)

[@davidw6936]

@DaniKala Be careful! If you are getting hand pain from practicing, there’s a problem with your technique. Playing should not cause pain. Don’t play through pain or you can develop a serious injury. Stop and figure out what you are doing wrong, and don’t continue until you can play without pain.

[@paulzeng6211]

It seems like you're directing your videos towards a specific individual. For some technical pieces, a reset, taper (works in a lot of athletic activities for a reason), is crucial for starting over and learning faster and more accurately and obviously more control as well, it seems like you're conflating with every piece you need to practice every day otherwise you're not going to improve. Clearly this isn't the case. A taper helps reset, like I said, mentally, physically, and if you don't believe me, try it out yourself on some hard piece that you can't get right for a long time, because it is inevitable to repeat a mistake the first time practicing a new piece. It is the ultimate way to save time and effort, and also the easiest way to brute force correctness for a technical piece. I stand by what I say because I know from experience. So yes, it's really that simple. Use your intuition to get the bulk of a piece right (in terms of technique) at the speed you want, focus on a specific section that you can't get right, then come back 3 months or 4 months later (because that's the optimal time for taper on the piano). The slow practice thing is only good if you got the technique right, otherwise you're not getting anywhere with accurate technique.

How to be a piano pro w/o practice? 🧐😥

[@victoriangirl83]

I'm distracted by how long your nails are. How do they not hit the keys? Great tips, though -- it's exactly what I tell my students. I also recommend that they move their whole body when playing, use arm weight to play notes rather than fingers, and use a buoyant wrist -- even as a beginner. One looks and sounds more like a musician when one isn't stiff.
