🎼Tip Tuesday🎼 The ability to play in front of a group is an important social skill. It’s a great way to share your talents with others, and you may find yourself expanding your network as you put yourself out there in the musical community. #pianotips #Faringdon #Pianoshowroom pic.twitter.com/2qZ861r5z8

Young children often have weak fingers making it difficult to keep them curved and firm without tension. To make it easier they can play with index finger supported by the thumb, “Owl’s Eyes” and the middle finger supported by the thumb “Owl’s Glasses” #music #piano #pianotips pic.twitter.com/co7vkhHC0b

#pianotechnique I like the hands to be positioned symmetrically in relation to the range of notes that have to be played. I am particularly fond of changing the finger on a note in #legato playing but not a great advocate of using the thumb on black notes #pianoplaying #tips pic.twitter.com/78qZH1yaAQ
