Hi I know this sounds dumb, but practice slowly with your eyes closed. If your relying totally on your eyes to guide you in this piece , you have a problem. The eyes are only a general guide. You totally have to feel the movement. And if this sounds goofy , remember the last guy to win the Chopin competition if I remember right was Blind. So think about playing the rach 2 and being blind. Use your eyes but not for everything. Hope this helps Cheers, Becky.
Enough with the age thing.
Hey wait... I wasn't trying to insinuate anything... I was impressed. I think the only reason I mentioned it, is because I wish more than anything that I had been taught by professionals from the very beginning, and I was kind of jealous. I think it's a shame that in Australia, there seems to be a real lack of professional teachers and I wish that I could relive my childhood over again.
I thought about posting some stupid posts, so maybe I would sound like what a 12 year old girl is supposed to sound like
Like me I always post stupid posts...
Littletune, the only thing you or anybody else will ever truly be the best in the world at, no matter how it may seem, is being exactly oneself. You are not stupid and your posts are not stupid.
this thread has become a mess of tangential discussion
Thank you m1469!!! Your answer is just like as if you knew exactly what I was thinking about! Can you read minds?!
And you know what else? I didn't know you posted this when you posted it but the time when you posted it was just the time when I started feeling better Cause before I was feeling kinda bad about myself and then all of a sudden I wasn't feeling bad anymore and I thought I should better just be the goofy childish me cause that's the way I am and it's just stupid to try to pretend you're something you're not! And I really didn't know why I started feeling so differently all of a sudden... and then I saw that it was at about the time when you posted this! Weird! and cool!!
... that nobody in this thread butm1469and littletune may have even heard at all
