Slow Solfeggietto CPE Bach Steve on Piano, Part 1

[Epistemofo]

Good stuff man, I like it!

Not at all bad. Peace!

[lukaswolf0007]

Haha, not bad for one week of practice by an old timer like yourself :)

Don't rush the tempo, and remember to learn in parts. Don't start all over at the beginning if something goes wrong, instead try to find points in the play where you can easily jump in to. This prevents the problem of the first few notes being perfect, while the further you get the worse the performance becomes! Also, begin with something easier like bach prelude nr.1 (bwv 846).. Excellent beginner piece!

Thank you , I appreciate your comments, and I will look at Prelude 1 Bach

I admire anyone who can tackle an instrument as a hobby. Most people think their ability to learn stops in their twenties. I don't think I made the kind of progress you are making at the piano in your seventies when I studied as a child and I was considered gifted. Keep up the good work and you wil be ripping thru the preludes and fugues like it was the morning paper.

Beautiful. I too decided, about a two weeks ago to get serious with piano amd Key boards. You've just given some extra encouragement.

[irondawson]

Thanks press on and You tube is a great place to get some lessons like Mr Ron and Lypur...and others...the great thing is I am slow so and at my age I forget easily so I return to the youtube lesons continually....Blessings to you

[gloomyJulia]

Wow, that sounds really good! U must be practicing a lot. Thanks for sharing it with us, I kinda felt that 24 was way too late for me to start learning how to play piano, but I guess not:) Good work!

[irondawson]

Thank you, I practice almost every day about one or more hours, some days I am there most of the day, just because I enjoy the progress,I use the Hanon exersizes....1, 5,7,8... it is really fun to hear them get smoother....I try never to see anything a hard or impossible...

[irondawson]

It is a Yamaha Baby Grand..I bought it used from our son Abel Zavala...who is a wonderful artist....

[teflo2]

By the way, I was admiring the piano. I'm in the market for a new keyboard. What kind of keyboard are your playing?

Steve;

That was wonderful. Bach can be a challenge for the fingers huh? You do a nice job with fingering and the flow is quite smooth. Keep up the good work. We'll be seeing you as a virtuoso shortly.

To your success,

Teflo2

[irondawson]

Thank you....

[vmitov]

Congratulations!...I like you're playing piano (more than violine, perhaps:))

[irondawson]

Thank you so much, gracias mi amigo,de aquerdo contigo...con violin un milimeter afuera y no hay intonacion.....yes with the violin there is so little room to stay in tune, but I will never give up in either case...thank you for viewing

[msgmorton]

Wow, maestro, you have potential! Keep it up. I am impressed, and will check on your progress. If only I could do that!!!

[irondawson]

Thank you so much, at my age I think , if not now, when? There is no time like the present...I do practice several hours a day..I so appreciate your viewing and kind comments .....Steve

[marspono]

wow!!this is awesome stuff Ron!!

..how did he get to gain all in a month???

well done steve!!!

[irondawson]

Thanks so much..I just try hard

[MrRon58]

Hi Steve... I one suggestion!

I notice that when one hand is playing a melodic line, you move the other hand away from the keyboard (on your lap or just away from it...)... don't do that!

Always keep your hand on the keyboard to be prepared to play!

When you do this, their WILL NOT be an interruption in the tempo.

To your success,

Ron

[irondawson]

Thanks Ron I will do that immediately, you are also very correct about warming up with Hanon , I have been learning 1,5, 7,and 8, Thanks for all your help....Things are going well as I practice every day, as long as I inprove...even a little I an muy contento

[MrRon58]

Steve that was GREAT considering you've only been playing for a month!

Ron
