SCALES: NEW Strategies to be EVEN, CLEAR, and PRECISE - Josh Wright Piano TV

[@danieltkach2330]

I'm always waiting for the parts where he shows off a little. What I love about those gems is how naturally he does it. Something to aspire for.

"I see a lot of students do this", and plays better than I hope to ever play :D

A new tip for scales I was discussing recently with a student playing a Scarlatti sonata...I hope it is helpful to you and/or your students who are having trouble with this!

[@mitchnew3037]

Thank You 😊

I really appreciate this channel. Thank you so much, Josh. You've really helped me out a lot!

Omg this is it. My left hand was always twisting and pulling my fingers when playing scales in Mozart Sonata 16. I realised all I had to do was move to the right a bit. I was sitting in the centre which didn't help. Once I moved right it felt lot more comfortable and my hands were straight. My speed didn't improve at all. But the sound was so even I was amazed.

Josh, you are the best. I am so thankful for your existence!

[@lowspiritedfish9807]

I love how he uses rach 3 as an example to teach scales :)

[@wolfie8748]

he is seriosuly the best teacher in youtube

[@trash_whisperer]

Thank you so much for this video! I definitely struggle with this problem. I’m also finding a disconnect between my left and right hand at higher speeds: they don’t play quite in sync. I picked up Czerny’s School of Velocity again recently to try to work in this problem. 😂 I have picked up sooo many bad habits over the years that I’m trying to fix now as an adult and it’s hard. 😩

[@misterchrissy]

Thank you for this video. I've actually struggled with this exact piece and the exact spot you used as an example (and similar scale passages in this piece). I think I'll have revisit K. 239 and apply your tips :) Thanks!

[@joannagarcia5264]

I love this piece!

[@nehath123]

Maybe you should place ur camera above the piano so whe can see ur hand movement better

[@BMInes]

thank you ! i just realized i did this mistake thanks to this video !

[@thegreenpianist7683]

You're on a roll with scales lately Josh haha

[@xulgopshenfagon5457]

1:40, which piece is that? It's beautyful

[@Thebigballsmanful]

It's the ossia cadenza from Rachmaninoff's 3rd piano concerto in D minor. It's near the end of the first movement.

[@mvrcguitar]

Hi! I've never requested nothing but can you do a tutorial of Rachmaninoff Little red riding hood etude? Thank you!

[@lilianarivera3130]

Love it

[@artisuryavanshi7785]

Please Make A tutorial on the third movement of 'the tempest' sonata by Beethoven No.17 as iam having difficulty playing it

[@jonnyaffenzahn8148]

super video as always....:)

Speaking of quicker releases, I'm having trouble with the turns (so-called Haydn ornament) in Haydn's C Major Sonata XVI:1. The piece starts on middle C and the turn is DCBC with the suggested fingering of 4321. I can't get the C to return back fast enough to then get a crisp C on the end of the turn (if that makes sense) consistently. I tried playing the first 3 notes lightly and it works most of the time. I even tried going up and down the keyboard. Any tips? Maybe just patience? Also, the alberti bass' have to be played super fast. The Derzhavina recording is mind boggling quick.

Thanks for your channel ! ----Jojo Yu

12 Transcendental Etudes Propratice?

[@bifeldman]

I appreciate you are suggesting the hand should be centered, but it was quite unclear exactly what you were prescribing for the fingers. It seemed you both recommended and condemned finger leading. It was clear that hand leading introduced problems.
