This past week, many young students were at the same juncture in preparing for their piano lesson; the rebirth of spring is also a time for the birth of new music.
How does one learn a new piece of music?
Once you've read through the piece, learned it hands alone (if necessary) and then put things hands together, it's time for a plan.
Divide your piece into sections, and, then identify and mark in the music, the phrases.
Number the phrases in order of difficulty, number 1 being the most difficult.
Mix up the music so that you play the most difficult phrase first, and the easiest phrase last. Never start at the beginning!
Repeat your phrase as many times as how old you are.
By the way, do you know what a phrase is?
