This changed my whole perspective on playing Mozart. It’s seriously useful if you can understand what he’s saying. I had to stop a few times but eventually was able to understand most of the information.

Wonderful class, you don't see many explained like this in Spanish, which is why I really appreciate that the title draws the attention of the Spanish viewer and also that it is useful to the English-speaking viewer.

this was really interesting to learn as a classical guitarist who can't play piano at all. tremolo and cross string trills on guitar work the same way, there are some virtuosi who still finger them using two fingers but the 1-4-3-2 or 1-2-4-3-2 in flamenco works on the same principle as piano trills

This is very similar to how Mark Knopfler plucks guitar strings in succession. He has a very distinct sound because he plucks where almost all guitarists would hammer and pull. For example, the arpeggios at the end of Sultains of Swing, mark does 2 string arpeggios that would normally be executed: pluck, pull pluck, hammer pull pluck pluck pluck but Mark goes pluck pluck pluck= pluck pluck pluck pluck pluck pluck by using 3 fingers (his thumb on the lower string, and slternating fingers on the high string.

May i know how to train hyperflexible first joints of the fingers so that the fingers are able to support on the piano?

@thechopinmethod7257 6 күн бұрын

Yes. Please concentrate on where the intrinsic muscles excert their function inside the finger: the zone distal to the knuckle and the zone where the nail is. This is already described in a video os this series.

Good day sir, I really enjoy your videos. I'm a self-taught church musician looking to change my approach to a classical aproach as it focuses alot on technique and I have major issues in this area... is there any book suggestions that I can look at to help me better understand this method/ approach to music

@thechopinmethod7257 Ай бұрын

Hello! I amd not aware if there is a good book to better explain Chopin's Method. Of course, you may try "Chopin vu par ses élèves" by J.J Eigerldinger, which brings the compolation that inspired this YT channel. I expected that videos with animations may help pianists over. Time will tell. Thank you very much for your support. CS

The reasons could be several at once. From congeital to habits to perception. A distinction must be done between sitting straight from sitting with a straight spine, which is impossible. The spine has natural curves which transfer weight down. This is why each case has to be observed by a specialist.

It would be great if you could do a more in depth lesson on 4th and 5th fingers. I am struggling a lot with them. It's so easy to have pain at the elbows as soon as the piece uses them repeatedly. I started studying piano 1 year ago, so I have troubles to understand to correct movements.

Yes. There is plenty to say about the 5th finger by itself now. A video about the 5th and eventually of the 4th will be part of the series. Thank you for watching. Please share.

How to build intrinsic muscle?

@thechopinmethod7257 18 күн бұрын

By playing the piano like Chopin recommended! The piano keyboard is already the most sophisticated "gym" for the intrinsics, one where no brute force is required. The use of elastic bands or strengthener devices is certainly detrimental to fine piano playing. Intrinsic muscles are susceptible to muscle fibre type bias (strong but slow vs weak but fast) depending on the training. Perhaps it would be better to study these muscles and practice the piano knowing what can they do (finger flexion, abduction, adduction, phalanx extension, propioception, etc.). Having said all this, the thumb can be subjected to a short drills for speed building. Then again, this requires that the pianist be aware of the thumb articulation and muscle action locations.

Would have to observe your case to give an opinion because I don't quite understand what you mean by "double joint fingers". Upper limb dystonia is fairly common among pianists who repeat wrong postures persistently.
