Piano Master Class with 5 year old student, part I

[aarnemark]

I really like how you are taking time with technique, and not afraid to be hands on with the student.

thanks for posting this.. very helpful .. i'm in the middle of relearning my technique after many years of playing with my fingers rather than wrists... it's a huge roadblock!

Sorry I said strong tone, but I meant loud sound.

This is a great stuff. Thank you so much for posing this video. In this way You can produce beautiful tone. I appreciate it very much, if you could post or tell me how to project the strong tone, eg using shoulder or whole arm weight.

i really like your approach. What's the book you use with this 5 yr old student?

Thank you.

On this level we use "A Dozen a Day" (for techniques)-it is a book of

fingering exercises for each day" and Alfred Piano Premier course, level 1A lesson , theory, and a performance books). I like Premier Course, because they dont stuck with the middle C- position and learn how to move fingers around and learn counting with the tied notes.
