    Practice slowly is key even the big names practice slowly. As we were taught in school speed develops on its own. As Howard Roberts would tell students.... When you make mistakes practicing, you are practicing making mistakes.

    I totally agree and appreciate everything you said EXCEPT that in most situations I think I learn pieces better and sooner the earlier I put my hands together. I learned this at a piano teaching conference and it’s true! Especially the sticky parts of inventions and fugues where, sure, I learned hand separately, but getting those hands together SUPER SLOWLY as soon as possible meant that I was learning it together sooner. Those particular pieces happened to be so easy hand separately I could pretty much sight read them. Getting them together is when the real practice started for me. Just a thought!

    These are great tips for being productive in pretty much any area of life! Phone away, set goals, take your time. Totally agree.
    I think you need to add on (for piano practice anyway) 'break down problems to the smallest component'. In order to progress beyond slow practice I need to find where the actual issue is - hands coordination, an awkward jump, a mental block etc - and fix that before adding on the notes before or after.

    I think what is important too, is that one focuses on phrasing and control even from the beginning too. Because later one most of the work comes to get the right dynamics and phrasing for a piece. This will need way longer than actually just getting to play the right notes. What you said is mostly true for complete beginners, later the time is mostly used for just dynamics and phrasing.

  • @michaelhiggins7365

    I like the idea of working on at least one song which is a level or two up from your current playing ability. This pushes your brain and your muscle memory to strive beyond the comfortable. I find that my forearms ache when I'm learning a new piece, to me, it indicates I'm pushing myself up to the next level. I think your advice here is rock solid and I will apply it to my learning. Thank You ;)

    I’ve been playing since I was around the age of four (I’m fourteen now) and unfortunately I’m still at a pretty amateur level compared to what you would expect from someone whose been playing for ten years. Progress was fast at first then slowed down, then I moved and was fast again but it slowed down, once again i moved and it was fast but it slowed down and I’m not sure why. It’s frustrating to see people only playing for a short amount of time yet are already so amazing at it or seeing people my age do waaay better than me. But your videos are really helpful and I’ll be doing all of these tips, thank u so much :)

  • @thepianoplayer416
    @thepianoplayer416 5 лет назад +2

    The hands separate rule works for most pieces. Some people claim that there are some complicated pieces by Rachmaninoff that would be better played with both hands from the beginning because the melody and harmonies crossover between both hands. Normally we assume that the melody is on the R and the accompaniment is on the L.
    The 1 question that gets debated a lot is whether people should be playing at their level all the time or try to figure out pieces above their level. When it comes to sight-reading, most teacher would agree that you read slightly below your playing level until you're comfortable and work your way up. Not everybody agrees you should struggle learning a difficult piece than playing something at your level. On the other hand, once you mastered a piece slightly above your level, you've pushed yourself higher up. Don't think you need to stay within your comfort zone all the time.

    Finding the time to focus is the hardest one, i started learning piano last year, when i was 38 yrs old, i managed to play a piece Doraemon theme song which is pretty good and taught my little one to play that one too. The key is to find your inner drive and focus. And not practise too long for each session. You are absolutely right, focus, and slow and consistent is the key.

    Because of my circumstances, I don't have a piano teacher. I have two beginner's books, Faber and a bilingual French book, "La méthode Rose". I realize that I haven't taken them seriously and I didn't master them before moving on. Time to go back about 30 pages and practice them hands seperately slowly, then together, and realize what each skil I should acquire. By building a solid base, the house is more stable.

    @williamschickling6702 8 месяцев назад

    I find the combination or trade-off between practice slowly and hands separately to be interrelated. My teacher would dissuade me from practicing separately, largely due to the phenomenon you described - you can't perform the piece hands separately and putting them together requires another level of effort. Her advice was to simply slow down as much as necessary so that each measure could be played hands together. It's more efficient because you only have to learn each section once. I find that is true - for the most part. The time when I use hands separately is when I have a section where finger independence poses an issue in one of the hands. I'll work on that separately until I overcome that mental/physical "block".

      By 'strict' teacher I mean finding a teacher that will set goals with you that are challenging and keep you accountable for it. You want a teacher that can push you beyond yourself. Most people don't make progress because they don't have this teacher to push them.

    Hey Jazer! Thank you so much for these great videos.
    I have a question.
    I'm in my first year of piano playing, but I've been playing guitar for more than 13 years and I know a lot of theory and have pretty good ears, because I never played guitar with sheet music but did a lot of transcribing and playing by ear.
    My problem now is that when I learn a new piece on piano I memorize it pretty quickly and from that moment on looking at the score while playing actually slows me down and I make more mistakes. I'm torn between between what to focus on. What do you think is more important for a beginner student? Keeping your eyes on the score and really try to follow it which may be slower or should I ditch the sheet music as soon as I feel I know the song? I actually wanna improve my sight reading and I feel my notion to not look at the score is slowing down my sight reading progress.

    • @jazerleepiano
      @jazerleepiano  5 лет назад +7

      Great question. You're an experienced and musical person Nimeu. The answer will depend on what your goals are. If your goal is to try to improve your piano sight reading, my suggestion is don't ditch the music sheet and sight read as much as you can to improve. If your goals are just to learn music and play them for leisure or performance, I don't see any problem with the method you're using, many people wish they had ears like yours!

    For the gnossienne N°5 of Satie, I started by playing the right hand alone, and the left hand alone, but now I play with both hands, and I even find it still easier, for the two hands match well together.

    Hi Jazer Lee I’m an adult learner and my biggest challenge is timing. I get so frustrated with my counting & with the metronome. Any tutorials you can offer will be greatly appreciated. With the metronome I tend to tune it out. With counting out loud I’m not consistent. Help!!

    • @jazerleepiano
      @jazerleepiano  5 лет назад +7

      Hi Renee, accurate timing and rhythm is a big struggle point for many learners. I find the problem with adults is they understand rhythm THEORETICALLY but fail to EXECUTE them consistently. I may do a video on this in the future. Have you tried focusing on rhythmic exercises to build your sense of rhythm and coordination?

    In 2nd grade I talked my mom into letting me quit piano lessons. She told me I would regret it one day. Which I have. I’m 63 now and just started lessons again. Even though it’s going slowly… I keep going. One day I’ll be able to put music to my lyrics!

    As an adult piano hobbyist I Practice hands separate especially the difficult passages. But it still takes a long time for a particular section to get into my head & hands. I seem to be practicing a section but I have no idea if my practice will yield results and or how long it will take. I’m always looking for new ways to practice, I don’t have a set of things that I know will ALWAYS lead to good results. It seems to be hit and miss, sometimes the practice technique works other times, I feel like I’ve wasted my time.

    Hello thank you for posting these videos and I generally watch these videos without missing them. As you mentioned in your this video what are concerns about your learning experience, I am trying to learn since 2 years and 5 months
    1. I started learning at the keyboard and remembering how to play instead of through sight reading may be out of frustration, That is the biggest drawback that I find in self I am trying my best to get out of that but looks like it is tough, I try to play all songs that I have learned through memorizing, I try to play through sight reading and it is working but it is really really painful and slow and not working as expected not sure how that can be improved
    2. When I practice a new song it takes about 2-3 weeks and then I forget what I have leaned earlier and it takes time to get those songs back on track
    Please comment and advice for the same.
    Thanks

    Thank you for the tips, Mr. Jazer, that helped me a lot for young beginner😅. The problem that I often face when I want to do a piano technique is my fingers can't move or are very stiff. For example, I want to play arppegio, it feels like my fingers can't move. So, what training should I do every day? Thank you, God bless.

    Hi Jazer, I like your videos and your useful hints you are giving. What do you recomend: stick to the sheets and play without looking to the fingers and keys or memorize the songs you play and get rid off the sheets, especially when performing? Greetings from Germany

    • @jazerleepiano
      @jazerleepiano  5 лет назад

      This is a great question Burton, it depends on what your goal is. If your goal is to improve sight reading, you should stick to the sheets. If your goal is to perform in front of an audience, memorising is a good idea. What is your goal with the current piece you are playing?

      @@jazerleepiano Hi Jazer, first of all thank you for your reply. I am a after work in between kids spare time piano player. After having not played for 20 years I "re"started playing the piano 1 1/2 years ago. At the moment I can play a douzend Ludovico Einaudi, Yiruma, Yann Tirsen ect. songs, mainly for myself, sometimes for my family and friends, when they happen to be around. I realised that I cannot instantly switch from sight reading to memorized playing or vice versa. Either way I get confused. What do you suggest: sight reading (with page turning, hectically looking up and down, unable to play somewhere else, when the sheetmusic is not at hand) or memorize (what takes much more time and effort.... And chances to get stuck and can't find a way back into the song with the notes out of sight) How do you memorize songs?

    Hi Jazer, stumbled on your channel and really grasping all your videos on learning to play piano! It has always been my childhood desire to play it.
    ThenI managed to get some piano lessons later as an adult and what more a busy housewife with kids, that’s where I took lessons from their piano teacher too. Later on my kids gave up their passion for piano music and I stopped too. Time flew, kids grown up and married and now I have the time and gotten myself a grand Kawai piano sitting in the living room with no one to play on. Simply I love piano playing but never good at it. I told myself maybe am just a slow learner but I will persist and it’s getting way harder.
    Ok, can you please do a video on advice and tips for Adult learning! I have passed grade 3 many years ago but lack and slack piano practices and sight reading is quite a pain. Appreciate it!😢

    Concerning the hands together, is it best to master the speed with each hand separately before together?
    Also would it be wise to master the speed of each part of the song, or learning how to play the whole song slowly at first?

    Hey Jazer. My real name is Will. I’m a self taught player. I’ve been finding myself watching your videos lately. For being self taught is nice but after 23 years of playing I’m still at the beginning for the most part. In all that time I’ve only learned how to play 3 or 4 songs. Your videos made me realize that I’m not where I want to be with playing. But for me I can’t get a piano teacher do to my job. I’m always away from home because of it. Any advice on that?

    Learning a piece in a week? Wish I could do that lol. I did Grade 8 as a teenager but then stopped playing when I went to university. Now I am 25 and starting to play again. But I was always v v slow at learning pieces (took me months for each one, but then I did only practice about twice a week) and bad at sight reading until I committed to practicing it every day for a few months before my Grade 8 exam. Think I got 6/10 which was a really good compared to past exams so guess it paid off!
    Really enjoying your videos :)
