How Many Hours Should You Practice the Piano? – The Lines Between Science, Method and Passion

It is a timeless question, a persistent voice in the mind of every pianist: “How many hours must I practice to truly improve?” It springs from a perfectly legitimate desire to measure the commitment required to transform our ambitions into sound, whether that means playing a simple minuet or dreaming of the world’s most prestigious stages. Giulio Cinelli from Pianosolo.it guides us through this classic topic. Read more

PS edition quality

Hi Nils/Op 111.

Below are two images taken from the 2 scores listed for chopin 10/1 on piano street. It appears that there is a note incorrect in the PS edition..  This is not the only example I am aware of, - there are many.

I wonder if you are doing anything to rectify these kinds of problems. The quality of the PS editions is great and I would like to be able to rely on them, but unfortunately can't and at this stage would not use one without cross referencing it against another edition for fear of wrong notes.

Yes, we are in the process of preparing, and will soon publish, a new updated version of the 24 Chopin Studies with improved layout and where the note you mention as well as a few other slips have been corrected.

So its been in excess of 6 months and many of these small easily adjusted problems still haven't been fixed.

Today I'll note that there is an accidental missing from bar 7-8 chopin 25/6.

The editorial work is done but we had some unexpected compatibility issue when updating our old files in the new version of the notation software. The problem was solved recently and the new edition will be available in August.
