Hello,

Just wonderuing if you have read through the "Fundamentals of Piano Practice" and have tried to follow the practice drill, or even attempted it, could you please tell me your feedbacks, whether it help you, or break your piano playing, or just made you confused...

When i read it and try out the routine, it disrupt my usual playing style, is the unusal or normal... eg getting rid of my bad habits of playing??

Thanks

the whole book is about methods of practice. you have to break it down into what it is that you are trying to achieve with a piece
