1️⃣ count out loud - if you don't count out loud or use the metronome, your rhythm is probably off. 2️⃣ loop problem areas - don't play the entire piece from front to back and call that practice. Play and repeat the problem areas, one bar at a time, repeat until you play them correctly. 3️⃣ Play the perfection game. You must play 5 in a row correctly before you allow yourself to increase speed or move forward. Be strict. If you screw up 1 time, you must reset to 0. The more strict you are, the higher your standard of quality, the better you'll sound.

"What dexterity exercises should I practice to get faster at piano?" asks @brenden.k.bianchi Exercise 1 The Hanon exercises are great for piano finger dexterity and warm up. Before every practice session, I would play 1 Hanon exercise at least once. I would work on 1 different Hanon exercise every week, but if I did not master fluency of that Hanon exercise, I'd do it again for another week. Hanon No. 1 all the way to Hanon No. 31 are essential minimums. These Hanon exercises train your fingers, especially fingers 3 and 4 - the weaker of the 5 fingers on each hand. To target the 3rd and 4th fingers, we make them work harder in Hanon No. 2 and 3. Exercise 2 This is about scales, chords, and arpeggios. This is called Piano Technique - we do this every day for at least 10 years to achieve mastery. For beginners, you can start by playing the 5 finger scale C-D-E-F-G until you can play this evenly. Beyond this, for scales, you can start with C major, G major, D major, A major, and E major. These are the first 5 keys in the Circle of 5ths - no sharp, 1 sharp,  2 sharps, 3 sharps, and 4 sharps. Once comfortable with the fingering for these 5 major keys, you may continue to learn all 12 major keys. Meanwhile, there are 12 minor keys that correspond to each key signature as well. If you become proficient in all keys, you will learn new pieces with ease. https://shop.rcmusic.com/products/the-royal-conservatory-of-music-piano-technique-book-2008-edition

XUE HUA PIAO PIAO. I cried making this piano version of Yi Jian Mei 一剪梅 Asian Eggman singing in da snow.

How to develop Hand Independence for the piano 🎹👌 This is a common question and with some practice - it's an easy fix. Here are 5 exercises to help you play different things in the RH and LH. Start with a simple 5 note scale - C D E F G F E D C Level 1: Both LH and RH play up and down, quarter notes while you count Level 2: RH plays 1/8th notes while the LH plays quarter notes. RH - C D E F G F E D C D E F G F E D C LH -  C    D    E    F     G      F    E    D     C Notice how the right hand plays 2 notes for every 1 note the left hand plays. We are starting with a scale that most beginners know how to do, so we can focus on training hand independence. Level 3: Same as Level 2 but play the entire C major scale. RH plays 2 notes per 1 note in the LH (RH will play 2 octaves total) Level 4: RH plays 3 notes per 1 note in the LH. Play the entire C major scale (RH will play 3 octaves total) Level 5: RH plays 4 notes per 1 note in the LH. Play the entire C major scale (RH will play 4 octaves total) Once you are familiar with this, you can try this exercise with Hanon No. 1. Instead of testing hand independence by playing different notes, you can play > Different articulation, ex. RH plays staccatos, LH plays legato. You can alternate every new rotation. > Different dynamics, ex. RH plays forte, LH plays piano. Once easy, you can alternate every new rotation"

"My pinky collapses when I try to reach for octaves. What should I do? What do I do if my pinky collapses when I play slow and loud?" submitted by @chansamuel63 The pinky is naturally a weaker finger. We can strengthen it with drills and exercises like Hanon. 1) First, we must check your form. The outer side of the pinky can be used, instead of just the point of the finger. Look at how you use the thumb - Finger 1. We do not use the point like Fingers 2, 3, and 4. We can use the side of our pinky (Finger 5) and ""hammer down"" as well as the point when we need to stretch octaves. This will require some practice. 2) If your pinky collapses, I highly recommend starting Hanon No. 31 to train your pinky strength. Go slow and play firmly. Press each key down. https://easypianohacks.com/my-pinky-still-collapses-when-i-try-to-reach-for-octaves-what-should-i-do-what-do-i-do-if-my-pinky-collapses-when-i-play-slow-and-loud/
