I'm hopping over to Teoria as ear training Is my nemesis! I've avoided it until now but I can play the avoidance game no longer.

I love sight-reading!! I would say this is my stronger ability but I also play by ear.

Solid classical training seems to be long forgotten...

i’m the worst sight reader but i’m still watching this haha

@wout123100 10 дней назад

I can play the waltz in Am now. Thank you.

Can you be both? I am good at sight reading and playing by ear. Modern stuf I play by ear and classical I use music. When I play something like a Beethoven sonata I feel I can't do it justice without the music. For example, When playing mvt 3 of moonlight sonata I have memorized a lot of it but it seems overwhelming to learn it all without the music. Sometimes the hardest parts are what I seem to memorize though.

What an excellent series of videos. I have been focused so much on sight reading and I really think that's my strength, I never considered that my inability to speed up my playing to the correct tempo could be connected to my emphasis on sight reading. 🤯 I can sing and have a good ear for pitch, but rhythm is harder. Thank you so much for this video. The method book I'm working through (Alfred Premier 6) has a cd player (my car is so old it also has a cassette player) I listen to the pieces as I drive to double check the rhythm. I always felt like I was "cheating". After this video I will think of it as developing my rhythmic ear and balancing my skills. Thanks again!!

Oops. Meant to say I listen to cd in my old old car

I'm pretty far on the sight reading side of the spectrum and have done well in certain aspects of piano playing but this is really helpful for me as I want to get better at the ear stuff.

One I would add, some sight readers are frustratingly robotic -- they sound like a player piano and not like a person

@dagmarintreble 15 дней назад

I wish I could sight read faster. I can READ and work with a score well, but keepung track at higher tempo is impossible. So I need to memorize everything that's faster than legato 😢. I memorize easily because I am good at theory, but better sight reading skills would shorten my practise time for sure. I train so hard with Cory Hall, Pianomarvel and random literature, but progress is sooooo slow 😭

@warrenwinslow4266 12 дней назад

I found not looking at your hands or trying to never do it helps tremendously. It's hard at first especially when there are large jumps or your using most of the keyboard but it gets easier. If your looking at your hands your not looking at your music and you can loose your place. I'm self taught and it works for me.

@dagmarintreble 12 дней назад

@@warrenwinslow4266 Leaps don't work for me that way. If I leap without looking and hit a wrong note, all following notes are wrong, too, because I don't know where I am :(

What do you think about learning from YT videos/Synthesia? As a guitar player that’s my default way to learn a piece.

@wout123100 10 дней назад

you learn nothing form synthesia, you need to go into a structure of a song to play it really well.

@kolokolo9889 9 дней назад

@@wout123100I mean I learn the notes from synthesia (or similar program) and figure out the rhythm, articulation etc by ear (but by listening to real pianist performance).

@eladpeleg745 День назад

I think you should learn sheet music as soon as possible because it isn't sustainable. I was like you and am now trying to learn to sight read and I can't even sight read the simplest children's songs right now. I know how you feel sheet music is a kind of torture in my eyes but like think how powerful you could be if you could sight read pieces. There aren't synesthesia videos for everything and it's hard to learn for fast pieces. Wish you luck on this awful painful annoying journey
