Piano learning methods, daily exercises.
on: April 02, 2012, 10:59:29 PM
Dear Forumers!

My name is Barnabas Folk, I am a film music composer contributing on several film projects but I would hardly name myself as "professional" or things like that.

I have finished my bigger projects, and now I have a lot of spare time for practising, but I just don't know how! Honestly I have been studying piano in a music school for two years, though I was improving fast I had to stop it due to financial and life-changing reasons. My main instrument were the drumset, and I am also playing the guitar on basic level, several wind instruments and other ethnic instruments, I was also growing up in a studio so I think I have the musical background.

I am dedicated, hard-working enough to practise, and learn by myself. I do not want to become a professional musician, but Improving my technical skills, having a more wide knowledge on the piano (and also sight reading, music theory) would be a great boost for my composing career.

The question is:

How?

Can you "create" a daily piano exercising-warm-up plan for me? Or how do you practise, keep your technique daily? I think some exercises, short tasks, technical improvement which is needed to be done daily (besides learning a piano piece). I don't want to buy some silly piano-method software.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
