[@lubov5208]

When I started learning the piano when I was five I always had problems with the hand position. I couldn’t understand how to do it and always got home after practice with hurting hands. Thank you for making this video it really helped not only me but my little brother who also had this problem like me

[@thechopinmethod7257]

I am so glad to hear you saying that, Lubov. Best wishes to you and your little brother!

Molto interessante!

[@PASHKULI]

We should address the uncomfortable shape of the "standard" piano keys as well.

[@Harry-qk5kf]

I don't understand. So how do i implement this in my piano playing actually.

[@thechopinmethod7257]

Hello Harry. First thing is you need to implement this in your hands, and be aware of the non piano tension which perturbs a correct piano setting. Cheers.

[@wolfie8748]

Where can I find that initial exercises by chopin?

[@thechopinmethod7257]

Sorry for the late answer Wolfie. Please look for the literature of Jean-Jacques Eigeldinger. He has several books with a wonderful compilation of Chopin's sketches. Cheers!
