This is very helpful! My teacher taught me too. Play right hand then left hand and hands together. The higher the grades is never easy. I can take 1 hour just repeating 1 bar continuously and still didn't get right. I'm not talented, but it just really needs a lot of patience and practice.

Thank you, Jazer. As a person w/ a full time career and a side hustle, it can be difficult to carve out 30-60 mins at once daily. This is very helpful. I now have a good plan on things I can hone when I only have 10 mins.

Thanks for the tips, Jazer! One more helpful tip from my teacher - always try to read at least one measure ahead. It’s damn hard but extremely important.

Separate hands are the best way to.practice a piece and the short Chopin preludes take very little time. I don't practice often and when i do i do it tunefully like hints from Jazer.

Great video! With 10 minutes yesterday, I pulled up a Charles Sczcepanek ACROSS THE UNIVERSE arrangement that I have put off trying. I looped the first four measures and played them over and over to get that odd timing down ... this process is golden!!!

I repeat problem parts 7 times. It must be 7 times in a row “with no mistakes”. I start these problem sections very slowly where I can play it just 7 times without mistakes. From that point I increase the tempo but 10 beats until I get to the actual tempo. I never increase the tempo at any time until I can play it 7 times in a row without mistakes. Yes, it is slow but then when I do my exams I get “pass with honours” every time. I am,as always, working to get “pass with distinction”. Not there yet but I will.

I'm a beginner and try to practice for 30 minutes every day. Sometimes I practice several times a day for shorter durations. I didn't realize I was doing something correct until now, and that is playing one or two measures over and over to develop the muscle memory. Every practice session begins and ends with two octaves of C major scales as fast as I can with both hands. It's not pretty, but is getting better each week.
@jammerlammer546Ай бұрын
I highly recommend you do it with hands separately, with the right fingerings, at a comfortable tempo, focusing on evenness and that no note stands out or is accented over another. I give you two weeks with this method, it'll probably take you more than a month with your method, to get to a speed you'd consider good.
@Mike--KАй бұрын
@@jammerlammer546 I'm open to suggestions, so I'll try your method and report back. I'm right handed, but seem to be more fluid and less prone to mistakes when doing the scales with only my left hand. Maybe I'm overthinking the process.

I know that those questions are only to generate comments under the video. But still, if I had only 10 minutes I would make sure to make room for more practice. I only have 30 minutes now and I even feel this is too little, even when doing structured practice (as I also want to have some time left to actually play what I want without 'practicing'.

I watched a video where you said something like “don’t play wrong notes, correct the mistake immediately before moving on” and it stuck with me. Now if I make a mistake, I redo that bar and play it five times correctly before continuing the piece. Oddly enough, I also practice the opposite. I will purposely hit a wrong note with the goal that I can continue and recover quickly without it messing up the rest of the song. I mainly practice this “technique” closer to a concert to mentally prepare for how it feels to hit a wrong note under pressure.

After working on a piece ('Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring' by J.S. Bach from 'The Library of Easy Piano Favorites') for about two years and still not being able to play it without a mistake, I have got better by doing what you advise, Jazer, viz. focussing on certain sections and also slowing down my playing (pushing the slowness in the final playing to the maximum while keeping to the tempo that feels right for this piece). Thank you. The application of your advice has led to a number of very satisfying short sessions in which I have sensed significant progress. (By the way, I don't simply play the one piece all the time! Ha, ha!

Those tips are so helpful for me as still kind of a perfectionist - that also has 3 children :D I want to play so so much but overthink how to practice, which way, what to, how long, and I think it's so hard - because I always want it all at once :) Slowly, in pieces, step by step, I know better now. Thank you also for your positive attitude, while giving great advice the mood also gets better :) If I were in Australia again, I would definitely take lessons from you.

When you say "make sure you know" instead of bludgeoning through, how would you suggest we know before hand. Is it memorizing the notes in the scale (from someone with bad memory)
@pasadenaphil8804Ай бұрын
I try to squeeze in many ten minutes practices every day and do a variation of what you recommend. If I am working on adding a new piece into my small repertoire later, I'll focus on the scales and/or chords of that piece to get ready. I often just work on two Hanon exercises or go through all exercises from 1 to wherever I am. If I am getting stuck in parts of pieces and have already added the problem to my list, I'll pick one and work on that. Fingering is a main problem for me so Hanon is a great help. The tedium is worth the satisfaction when I finally "get it". That usually happens in the 10-15 minute sessions, especially when I do it first thing in the morning.
@missmoo7663Ай бұрын
Thank you for the tips in practicing! I know for me personally, just sitting down to practice is hard at times! When I sit down at the paino I usually end up playing/practicing for about 45 mins. The 10 mins are just to have fun playing songs I know. 🙂
@b0570nk4Ай бұрын
noone ever only has 10 minutes per day of free time for something they like to do.. if they practice several times per day where that single session has 10 minutes then that is a different story imho what i do with 10 minutes is play hanon for warmup and my favorite music i try to currently learn from sheet music, play it up to the point where i struggle with and then slow down and repeat several times that single bar or two to build up muslce memory sometimes i take a random tea/toilet break where i have to wait about 10 minutes before the tea is drinkable and i use it for this too

Sheet music after 10 years will be very easy to execute at least at easy/medium level. Instantly recognizing notes and being able to play without practice most of classical music plus almost 100% pop music.
