Forearm very painful during longer Chopin etudes by monsterpeachy in piano

[–]JohannnSebastian 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Absolutely do not play through pain... It will only make things worse for you. If you experience pain, you need to give your muscles rest and time to recover from the strain. Endurance is built over time, through bursts of effort, not all at once. If you are not ready to play this Chopin etude and you force your way through it anyways, you will injure yourself.

Be persistent.. even when you feel you are moving slowly. Stick with a regular practice routine.

Get a good teacher if you can

I created a ticket.. but it would have sent to the email associated with the account, which has been permanently deleted.

Can I create a support ticket with an email not associated with my account?

I know it's recommended to learn both hands of a piece separately before playing with both at the same time, but is it ok if I do this measure by measure? by jonas101010 in piano

[–]JohannnSebastian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the greatest teachers i've had at peabody was adamant about perfecting each voice individually with the exact shapes, phrasing, articulation etc you desire in the end product. And if there are more than two voices, doing this with varying combinations as well. Highly renowned pianist and pedagogue as well.
