When working on separate hands, observe which is the slow hand. When practising hands together, make your top speed the speed of the slow hand.

Lack of synch is caused by the slow hand not being able to keep up with the fast hand.

Therefore, to increase speed of Hands Together, work towards increasing the speed of the slow hand (this is, of course, hands separate work

).

Best wishes,
Bernhard.
