I created this channel primarily for myself, as well as for friends, family, and others who may be embarking on a similar journey.
I started this channel in February 2024, aged 51. Learning to play the piano has always been a dream of mine. I'm beginning to focus more on my own life, rather than constantly tending to others-though that's sometimes still necessary. I am self teaching through books and RUclips mainly, it would be nice to one day have some professional lessons, but I don't have the funds currently to do so.
My goal is to track any tangible progress over time, which I hope will motivate me to persist. Perhaps it might even inspire other beginners, who could think, "Hey, I'm doing better than that guy," or perhaps the opposite. I'm also looking forward to receiving praise, encouragement, or any form of positive feedback to aid my progress. So, let's keep it kind; after all, kindness is what makes the world spin harmoniously! :-D

Im telling you as a pianist that your gonna be insane if you keep training like this
It may be too late; I might already be insane. On a serious note, I typically record two or three times a month and then distribute the videos throughout that week. These were recorded at the start of the week, to be honest. Following other comments, I've re-evaluated my posture and hand positioning, which has set me back a bit. Is this what you're referring to? Additionally, I am looking to find a teacher soon. I need some guidance now I feel.
Good luck then!@@NRN_NET

lol
If your hand isn't relaxed and your hands curl in weird ways, you're gonna have a horrible technique. Go super slow with your hands relaxed until you get the excersizd done smoothly. Then bump up the speed like 5 to 10 bpms. If you do what i mentioned, youll develop great muscle memory and hands coordination
Thanks for your comment, Although I feel relaxed, I think? I am looking into this, as it has been mentioned before.
May I advise that there is a better fingering you could try. Start with 3,2,3,2,3,2,3 then move accros with 1st. Remember that 5ht and especially 4th fingers are the worst in a beginner
Thanks, yes will try this
You must be a bigenner, keep up the work. Have some lessons with a teacher to talk about posture and how to press keys smooth and effective, your hands are very tense.
Thanks for your comment. Yes, pretty much a beginner. I think I could do with a few lessons, especially regarding posture and hands. 🤔

We're at a similar level, I've just started one month ago. The progress can feel painstakingly slow at times but I'm sure it will be worth the struggle 😄
It's certainly worth the effort, I hope. I believe the younger you are, the easier it is, depending on how much free time you have. Being in my early fifties with a busy life, I won't let that deter me. I'll get there, slowly. Haha. It's always encouraging to hear from others on this journey. Don't give up, my friend. 👍

I appreciate ur effort man i also once started like this now im little bit good at this song also try to play with both hands after u memorize the song
Yes, after i will go onto both hands' arrangement. Thanks for your comment 👍🏻
1:27 after this i think its C, E, A, B E, G#, B, C. Im also self taught but i cant read sheet so i watch youtube to learn stuff, veryh easy to follow but maybe you want to learn by sheet. Any way well played and continue practising :) theres no better feeling when youre done and can play the piece
Thanks for your comment, great to hear from others, especially others who are learning. Yes I am wanting to learn to read music, slow process but hopefully it will pay off long term. Trouble is after a while, you remember the piece without reading eventually, so stop reading. So I keep having to try other stuff too, to keep on top of reading 😀
It's good 😊

Okay, this is completely irrelevant, but I realised that your channel was created before I was born. 😮
😆 it was probably when I signed up to RUclips, when RUclips was probably newish? I remember a time before RUclips and all social media 🤣 but I've only just started posting in February 2024 this year.
As a 13 year old that is grade 8 in piano (I also play guitar, violin and clarinet), I would suggest you to relax you hands a bit more and make sure that the fingers are kind of in an arc with the hand, this makes the notes flow and smoothes them out, which makes it sound less stiff.
Thanks for your advice. I feel relaxed, I think 🤔 😆 but it is something that has been mentioned before, so I need to look into this and try to see what I'm doing wrong. Again, thanks for bringing this up 👍🏻
