    Fantastic video thank you! I’m a college jazz vocal/piano major and these tips were incredible. I’m learning more about how to play piano than my jaded childhood teacher ever did lmao
    Currently experiencing very bad tendonitis in both hands as a result of poor technique. Hopefully these practices can help with that.
    Thank you

      Good luck Charles. Sorry to hear about the pain. I’d really recommend seeing a good teacher just to check that out and make sure it doesn’t get worse.

    As being small handed, I cannot curve my fingers and need more frequent position changes than usual, like kids piano. 😂
    What I like most about this channel is Tim’s slow speaking plain English, not heavily American, not heavily British, not heavily Australian. 😊

      Ahh thanks Mick. Never really thought that much about my accent.

    Thanks for this Tim! Quick question: everywhere I see this ‘non legato’ mentioned and praised. (I teach Piano Safari so I am definitely a convert!) but, the word for non legato is … staccato … right? I know we treat staccato as sharp crisp notes but doesn’t it technically only mean ‘separated’ aka non legato? I’ve also heard ‘portato’ thrown around as that intermediary step between connected and ‘popping’ notes - being disconnected but gently so. I’m curious as to your insight between the terms. Thanks!

      Hi Maya - thanks for the question and sorry for the slow reply. Non Legato just means not connected. Staccato is much shorter and sharper. This just talks about playing notes separately rather than connecting them together. Portato aka Mezzo Staccato is just like that - medium staccato - more or less exactly between "non-legato"/detatched and legato "smoothly connected". Hope that helps!
