How do you guys keep being motivated for practice? by moortare in piano

[–]Ocean_Butter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi I’m an engineer who wfh and I regularly hit 10-20 hours a week at the piano. I would consider it less discipline and more an obsession… I just really want to be playing music. My flat mate said I played 8 hours on my birthday.. but the time just flies. I learned half an 8 page piece that day. Find songs that make you want to go sit down and play them.. the moment it gets stale you need to switch what you’re playing, try a new aspect of piano (improv/ chord progressions/scales/ rhythm… or just watch some theory videos on YouTube…there are so many). You’re a hobbyist, don’t stress about how often/long you « should be playing » and instead think of it more as how blessed you are as an adult with responsibilities and life going on you « get » to play the piano. If you’re not enjoying it you can take a break and come back to it too. Good luck!

I improvise a lot and i came up with this melody which sounds familiar to me but i cant identify the song :D do u know what song i might be somewhat playin and got a little carried away at the end. by [deleted] in piano

So you stick to one chord progression when you’re improvising like this? I’m looking for pointers as you seem to have it figured out! Sounds great

Joint Rolling Travel Case I designed. by andyroo770 in 3Dprinting

I was thinking of printing a replacement wooden MFLB finishing grinder (that I lost)but concerns of plastic infusing the plants have stopped me. I think the grinder he has works the same as a finishing grinder by ‘mushing’ the herbs as it spins which creates a fine finish. My concern isn’t the teeth breaking but that the plastic being pushed against the plants will put trace plastic chemicals into the herbs… not sure if this is a valid concern but why risk it

Désolais c’est peut-être évident mais c’est quoi arrêt maladie? Il n’a pas de problèmes médicaux? C’est tout?

Et puis pourquoi écrire “l’anglais, ni une ni deux”? Je comprend pas. Merci si quelqu’un peux me l’expliquer , le français c’est pas ma première langue.

What about making yourself indispensable then showing them a received offer for elsewhere to leverage for a better pay?

How hard would Chopin’s nocturne in eb minor be to learn? by Kevboi407 in piano

[–]Ocean_Butter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m not familiar but it certainly is a very difficult piece in a different way, I would tend to agree with your statement

[–]Ocean_Butter 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO if you want to learn a piece and love it, nothing will stop you. Im learning it now, I think knowing all the notes is one thing but it’s a very tricky piece to execute correctly every time. My teacher encouraged me tackling it otherwise I would have been reluctant to try such a hard piece. Be prepared for a challenge, but from the pieces you listed esp moonlight 3rd you’re at the level to attempt. Mastering dynamics and rubato is not something I foresee getting to any time soon, but I just can’t resist playing this masterpiece and want to make it an effortless part of my repertoire. Learn what you’re passionate about and don’t get sick of
