The best underrated video of all times. I started playing piano and learning on my own for few weeks now and i have been having neck, should blade and upper back pain. I had to stop. I even took 2 private classes but seems not to help at all. The teacher never mentioned i had my elbows glued to my body. She just want to start me playing pieces, while i am in pain. Thank you for this amazing video. You made it so clear , i hope it will help me avoid the pain so i can continue my journey in learning piano. thank you so much
Oh what joy your most kind words of appreciation have given me, Nadia! It is so satisfying when artists like you discover my work and resonate with the messages I am trying to share. Don't forget to visit piano-ology.com/. All the best to you in music and life!
Wow, Yvon! I'll take the Bob Ross comparison any day. But I'm not familiar with Bill Alexander. Any suggestion on how I might learn more about him? All the best to you in music and life!
Thanks a million for your most kind words, Steven. Alas, I cannot compete with the algorithm and huge marketing machines. I just hope that serious students and true artists like you will discover my work someday.
Hi Frank, I practice many of these, or at least try to, but still have one problem. When I play with left hand, the fingers I am not using tend to fly up on the press of the finger(s) I am pressing. For example, I play using 2nd and 1st fingers, my other 3 fingers go up. No such problem in right hand. Why does this happen? Any way to correct this?
Thanks for asking, Manish. Alas, I could not possibly diagnose a technical issue without seeing and hearing what you are playing. I cannot afford to give free lessons, but for a donation to the website, I would be happy to do a webcam lesson with you...piano-ology.com/webcam-lessons/
