The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

Piano playing as jogging.

on: May 08, 2005, 11:39:28 AM

Hi. I've read somewhere (probably in Chang's) that playing advanced piano pieces could equal, say, jogging at 4 mph. What pieces would be that advanced? Rach3?

Also, I'm learning Moonlight mov.3, how many mph would that be?

well it could, except the point of jogging would be to work out your legs and whatever other parts of your body, and playing the piano, no matter what piece, you're sitting with not a huge amount of movement in your legs. but if you replaced your legs with arms whilst jogging then i guess it could equal it...i really have no idea what i'm talkingabout!
