There is a wide range of classical piano music, from challenging to easy pieces.Each style requires a different skill set and there is something for everyone.Many classical pieces correlate with your experience and skill level, even if you are a beginner or a more advanced piano player.
Step 1: You can learn how to read sheet music.
Classical pianists rely on their books filled with classical masterpieces from all over the world.It is a general belief that when you play a classical piece you want to stay true to its composer's intent, so it is very important that you don't rely on your ear to learn a piece.Playing classical music and being able to read sheet music are related.
Step 2: You should make sure that you have good posture and a good playing technique.
It's important for fast and technically challenging pieces that require dexterity, control and endurance.The easiest way to find a technique that works for you is to have a teacher teach you.Relax your shoulders and forearms.Put your arm weight on it.If you want to keep your wrists straight, use the joints in your fingers instead of pressing the keys.It's important that you don't have tension in your forearms while playing.Your fingers should be able to rest on the weight of your arms.Try resting your hands on your knees or thighs.You should feel relaxed playing the piano.You are a friend of gravity.You can watch videos of skilled pianists.If you're looking for pianists with excellent technique, ask a teacher or friend.
Step 3: Understand the challenge of playing quickly.
If you listen to professional pianists, you can hear Mozart's Piano Sonata No.It's easy to make it sound simple, but it isn't.The big challenge when learning a piano is playing it well, as they generally aren't that complex.It is very common for sonatas to have a lot of fast scales going up and down, and these are difficult to play evenly and precisely.Proper technique is very important.
Step 4: You should be harsh on yourself.
If you're playing a piano piece, listen carefully.You can record yourself if you find it hard to listen and play at the same time.You should listen for areas where quick sixteenth notes weren't completely even, or where you pressed a key much harder than the rest to make it stand out.If you have a teacher, he or she will pick this up.Listen to your teacher and know where you can improve.
Step 5: Cross your fingers evenly.
One of the most difficult things to do quickly and evenly is crossing fingers, for example, thumb under middle or ring finger, or thumb over thumb.These kinds of transitions can be practiced slowly.The general idea is that if you have to cross the thumb under your ring finger, your thumb should be in contact with the key that it is going to press.Once you press down your thumb, your other fingers have to quickly go back over the thumb and be ready for your next press.The scales will be played smoothly and evenly if this is done correctly.If you get stuck, ask for help from your teacher or watch instructional videos.
Step 6: Go slower than you can handle.
It's important to never start playing a fast piece in its intended pace.You will have to constantly correct yourself, and that is bad.Start slowly and use a metronome to make sure you don't increase the pace.Once you get up to a satisfactory speed, you will have control of what you're playing.Don't be too ambitious and increase the pace too quickly.You will make more mistakes if you increase too much.You should go back down to a manageable pace if you do this.If you practice well, fast pieces will be more fun to play once you get it up to speed.
Step 7: If any, follow the notated fingering.
Many pieces will have fingerings written down to help you play the piece efficiently, and while they will not always make sense and seem strange, try using them anyway and they might make more sense once you get used to them.Different editions and translations of the same piece can have different fingerings suggested by professional pianists.If you can't make a suggested fingering work, then it's okay to make your own.Every pianist is different.
Step 8: You can learn the piece while playing it.
The first thing you should do is learn the piece while playing with a constant and strict tempo.
Step 9: You can make your own interpretation.
Once you're comfortable with a piece and know how to play it, you can add other things.There is no right or wrong.It's up to you to what degree you want to do eachsuggestion, but a lot of the time things like this will be written down in the sheet music to guide you.You will notice that there are different recordings of La fille aux cheveux de lin.Each pianist has a different interpretation of it.It is possible to use recordings as inspiration, but ultimately it is more fun to create your own idea of the piece, and to tell your story while playing it.You might attach the piece to an emotional level so that it is more than just a piece of paper with notes written on it.People will feel your personal energy when they watch you play the piano.
Step 10: It's important to make the melody stand out.
Romantic pieces usually have a lot of notes played at the same time, but only one will be the melody.The melody will be lost if you are not careful.Make sure you can make out the melody while playing.You should be able to sing along with it.Make sure that you put more of your arm's weight on the finger that is playing the melody.Unless otherwise instructed by the sheet music, it can be helpful to play the melody with legato.A lot of the time the sheet music has suggestions for fingerings that can help you on your way.If you can't figure it out yourself, ask your teacher or a friend for help.
