@LotBlind As in my experience try to avoid *keeping* them down. Especially with the ring finger the area of independent movement is really small, so you have to deal with that. Keeping wrong notes off from a chord is kinda hard to do, but just use minimal amount of muscles to those fingers that are going to play the chord and other fingers just should be doing absolutely nothing. Key weights that much that your relaxed finger won't put wrong note down while playing a chord.
When I move my fingers up, especially the ringfinger, it feels possibly easier to achieve the motion of just one finger without letting the others follow, if you simultaneously use some muscle to *keep* the adjacent fingers down. This is probably not desired, right? If I on the other hand push up the fingers I want to stay off the keys while playing a certain chord, am I risking making the hand tense or is it training finger independence instead (to keep wrong notes from playing in big chords)?
Great!! and thank you for sharing!!

this great and an excellent way to develop mental impulse which represent 80% of the piano technique imo
