A Piano Piece to Help Fix Pain While Playing

MY COMPLETE PIANO COURSE: https://www.simplifyingtheory.com/onl... In this video, you will learn: • How to play with a lighter touch • How to use your wrist without tension • How to press and release the keys correctly • How to avoid pain while playing • How to keep your shoulders relaxed • How to improve the smoothness and control of your touch With this exercise, Czerny Op. 261 No. 7, the goal is not simply to play the correct notes. The goal is to learn how to play with greater control, less tension, and without putting unnecessary strain on your hands. This exercise helps develop agility, finger independence, and a lighter, cleaner, more musical touch. Throughout the lesson, I explain how to use your wrist naturally in order to reduce tension, stiffness, and discomfort while playing. We will also work on how to press and release the keys properly, avoiding the tendency to grip the keyboard or use more force than necessary. Another important aspect is posture. We will look at the position of the shoulders, arms, and hands so that the body can remain relaxed and properly aligned. Tension in the shoulders can affect your sound, make you tire more quickly, and cause discomfort during practice. This exercise is ideal for anyone who wants to play the piano or keyboard with greater ease, lightness, control, and confidence. Practice slowly and pay close attention to both the sound you produce and how relaxed your body feels. Speed should come after lightness.
