Thanks Luigi! I typically practice 4-5 times per week (30 minute sessions), and I usually have one 30 minute lesson per week (Jane doesn't teach during school holidays, so there are only about 38 lessons a year). Given you have asked about "time", perhaps you can help me with something - I've been wondering whether statistical info like this is interesting to people, and considered adding it to the start of my performance videos. For example, I'm retiring Arabesque this week, and like all the other performances it's not going to be polished, because that's not why I'm learning the piece. I've had it for 14 weeks, practiced it 59 times, for a total of 7h56m of practice. So, about 8m per practice session. Do you think that kind of detail is useful to viewers?
hi Shane, yes, it's interesting just to understand How many hours it takes more or less to be able to play a song reasonably well. But it could also be useful to encourage other people not to give up at the first difficulty they encounter when playing the piano, and also to dispel the myth that in adulthood it is no longer possible to play the piano. Which is absolutely wrong and not true. I'm currently doing exercises for hand independence And I think it's the fundamental thing and I do study sessions more or less like yours but for an hour each. I'm working on a song called Gnossienne n.3 by Eric Satie. A bit difficult because the left hand has to do a lot of jumps. But I'll try. I hope one day to be able to upload it to RU-vid but I'm not very expert on this platform. bye until next time.
