This post is kinda random so....TADA~


DOes Any1 has tips on playing Chopin's Fantasie Impromptu?YEAH BABY

here's my suggestion

for your left hand... you should play very slowly with active lifting and dropping your fingers. this will help with muscle memory and also strengthning your left hand fingers.also make practicing time more useful.(i practice it lyke that =D)Only practice a portion at a time(YEAH). Do not practice the whole piece in one day.(MUST) Breakdown the piano piece you are going to learn in many portions.(KI SIAO AR ONE DAY PLAY WHOLE PIECE)You will need time to digest any given measurements.(OF CUZ) The fingers need to familiar with the location and touch of the notes.(MUST BE FFAAAMMIILLAIIIR) Analyze the piece(MUST) You may analyze the piece by observing any repeating segments. Very often a musicpiece has repeating segments. Sometimes the repeating segments might varies slightly. By doing this, you achievethe goal of practice a small segment but covering the repeating portions that appears later on in the same piece.Also analyze the forms of the piece. A common music form is ABA , AABA, AABB, ABCA etc.-- Chord/Cadence analysis(CHIMP PART)The same chord may appears for a few measures. This is true in any musical period,only for idoit's it may be false =D If you notice a same chord is repeating for many measures, then the noteswithin those measures belongs to the same chord and scale.ALthough i suk at sight-reading,this also helps your sight reading abilities(ZZZZZZZZZZZZ).i You get to predict the chord and notes ahead of time.(i cant)-- Warm up the fingers by playing the key of the piece - If the music piece is in the key of A major, you may want to warm up your A major scale by playing them numerous time to have a feel of A major's tone and fingering.-- Write down the three most important chords of the key - If the piece is in the key of A major, you may write down the tonic, dominant, and subdominant chord respectively. They are A chord, D chord, and E chord. You will soon discover the left hand part of the music comprised mostly of these three chords. This is true in any given music. These three chords are mostly used and harmonized.-- Practice each hand separately first - This method is most useful if you are playing pieces from the Baroque period. Music composed by Bach have many themes. Very often each hands is playing a different subject. Practice slowly in the beginning, speed up once you have a good understanding of the piece. This is important when you have a music piece that varies in rhythm (going from quarter note to half note, dotted quarter note, etc).-- Do not lose your sanity( I DO SOMETIMES)!!!!- Some music can be frustrating to learn. Keep a POSITIVE attitude. Though you are practicing a small portion at a time, you are still making progress. Some advanced repertoire may take 4-6 months or even longer to master. YEAH BABY so if anyone want's dhe scores just tell me i will send it you hehe~
