Chopin is amazing. love it so much.

 

So hard to play, but feels so amazing when you DO play it.

 

when attempting to play Chopin, you must...

 

1~ make sure you have controlled, relaxed wrists. (sounds weird, try doing your ugly exercises/relaxed wrists exercises.)

2~ practice (extra) the scale(s) of the key your piece is in.

3~ do not play Chopin by ear! you will butcher it! (definitely don't play with your ear xD I mean don't LISTEN to the music and then attempt to play it just from hearing it.)

4~ phrase things beautifully & watch your dynamics. Chopin is from the romantic times. His pieces are dramatic.

5~ practice section by section, adding them together once you get each section down pat.

 

and your Chopin piece will be beautiful! (:

 

Playing prelude no.15 in D flat right now. Beautiful. Love the drama! x3
