Chopin was amazing, but wasn't the greatest, far from it. The greatest, was and still is Beethoven. The man composed the most incredible pieces in history with hundreds on instruments and parts WHILE DEAF. That qualifies him as above all his contemporaries. And this is not an opinion, it is divine fact. I would also put Liszt in front of Chopin in skill.

I am fascinated by this. I am a senior self-taught pianist with no talent but lots of interest. I have had some very challenging movement problems with my right hand that I originally ascribed to a focal dystonia, but I no longer believe that’s the case. Now I think the problems are mechanical, not neurological. Sometimes I have thought it would be useful to really study the biomechanics of the piano, but really do not have the time or the right medical training for that. Now, out of the clear blue, this video has popped onto my screen. All of this must be written somewhere, but I’ve never been able to find it. Exercises are good, but intelligent exercises are far better. In my own case, I have found that slow and deliberate practice is far more helpful than I ever imagined it would be. Now I think with sorrow how I used to be criticized for slow playing when I tried learning the piano. Another discovery that is contrary to what I taught is that watching my hands during slow play also makes practice far more productive. If there are resources regarding the biomechanics of playing the piano, I’d love to know about them. Not that I hope to gain much personally (I’m 73), but because knowing this might help some younger learner.

Hello Dr. Michael. Thank you for commenting. Slow, deliberate and technically correct if I may add! Unfortunately, the scientific method in piano teaching is worrisomely scarce. Not even Chopin's insights were able to prevent the dominance of the popular piano concert, which requires a different technique and piano technology. 73 is relatively young in nowadays standards, and the brain is a very plastic thing at all ages. Hopefully you will continue your technical improvement. Warm regards!

Chopin was a genius. if you understand this, your entire approach to technique will change. that's why slow practice is so important. it allows you to be able to quickly recognize what sort of intricate movement is needed from all the fingers, entire hand, and arm, just to play a set of 3 notes. of course, at high speeds all this intricate minute movements cannot be seen. only the chef knows what's in the soup. mean while the spectators think the pianist is gifted, or a genius.

Wow! I never knew the 4th finger had a ligament to the 3rd and 5th. Knowing the bone, muscle, and ligament structure really helps. I like Chopin's method. Calling the 4th the siamese of the 3rd is brilliant. Sometimes my 5th finger goes way up off the keys - especially on turns and trills with the 2nd and 3rd finger, but watching your video I am bringing in the 5th finger closer to my body with a bit more curl and making it a temporary anchor, that helps. When I play trills with my 3rd and 4th, both my 2nd and 5th rise up... I hate that. I wish Chopin was here... I can see him slapping my fingers with a ruler every time they rose too high.

Thank you Paul. As you say, Chopin was quite a genius as a teacher, and piano biomechanics is really good for improving from within one's body. Something that you may consider while studying finger independence, is that neuromuscular plasticity is a slow and delicate process. Many pianists believe that the fingers need to be corrected "by force" (as if lifting weights at the gym), while the best approach is exactly the contrary. Best regards Paul!

As a beginner I learned each finger has its own “strength” but each must be regulated for the volume desired. I was told not to “poke down” into the key but “slide” the fingers off the keys towards you. The contact of should be on the fleshy part of the finger not the tips. I was a “poker” and my playing was horrible. Once I changed to this gentle slide technique I was able to play Brahms Lullaby in a total different dynamic. I also watched Martha Argerich video that showed her amazing technique of “gliding, sliding the fingers inward. I wasted months before I saw the videos. I also learned to keep the fingers on the keys and stroke from there and not from the high up; although it may look like that for show, you will note that the striking is really only on the level of the keys. I was told Arthur Rubinstein mastered this illusion of playing from the top. Never too late….take lessons, watch good videos like this….practice your scales like this and you will master the soft touch quickly….it also calms the mind. Thanks for this wonderful lesson.

Hello and thank your for your request. Please consider that a five finger playing of keys by a hand in a referent position is a situation where the forearm-arm-body have very little to do but to remain flexible. An essential concept in Chopin's method is that the fingers are the first to act and that every other articulation from the wrist up should react to this. Understandably, here is where stillness maybe mistaken for stiffness.

What a beautiful video! I liked the imagined conversation and the anthropomorphed interpretations for the fingers (leader, supporter, the prince etc). As a guitarist I enjoy learning about biology of hands to understand how to play efficiently. Modern guitar virtuoso's talk about muscle groups and tendons and even throw in medical (latin) terms, it's super cool to see how that's no different from the greats of the old days. As someone who doesn't listen to classical but had a ~year period where I really got into it, Chopin has always been my favorite overall. Now I have even more reason to admire the classical musicians. I really appreciate the scientific basis you put into making the video, and I think you are great with words. Very enjoyable to listen to and learn from. Would anyone be able to recommend me some similar scientifically based or approached videos geared at guitarists? I onky know of Troy Grady who makes awesome yt vids with slowmo, fretboard cam and also takes the biology angle and adds in some math and graphs too.
