>>41a significant amount of the time I have been learning has been wasted attempting to play pieces that are far above beginner level
like pieces from the anna magdalena notebook and leopold mozart minuets
I got a few books that have really short simple exercise like pieces that help me build muscle memory of finding the keys on the piano
I got the John W. Schaum piano course A - the red book
I finished the book before it that was called "pre-A"
and Adult all in one course (the alfred book)
I should be progressing through these really fast but I am not properly allocating time to practice (ideally 4 hours a day)
random american poster San Antonio, Texas No.58
>>57okay I guess those pieces I mentioned are beginner level but at the time I was attempting I barely knew the bass clef and was no where near ready
I have the first half of this piece memorized and can play it in tempo
but I am unable to read along while playing because my brain cant comprehend that many notes on both clefs at the same time yet

>>57>>58You need to keep in mind that your sight-reading will never be on par with your playing from memory, Feasties. It doesn't mean you should neglect it, of course, but rather keep the material you use for each separate. As for reading multiple notes at once, try to think of the score as a continuous system with 10 lines rather than two separate staffs. It's the same as hand independence: you are trying to convince your brain that you are doing one complex thing rather than two separate things, only here you have to do it ahead of time.
As for trying to play pieces out of your league… you won't be motivated if all you play are child pieces and sterile mechanical studies.

>>59okay thanks
I usually have been spending my entire practice time lately doing sight reading
im going to work on finishing the mozart menuet as well

I was thinking of creating a thread specified on lithurgic music but i think the discussion on that subject could apply to this thread as well.
Currently i've been around the Codex Calixtinus from Santiago de Compostela. Some scholars argue that it was some of the first pieces in europe to use poliphony but others disregard that theory
I guess we could also discuss music history in this thread but i gotta say that even tough i research for a lot of music in this genre i still have few knowledge on the formal constructions of the said musical pieces.
Anyways, i'll post a lithurgic hymn dedicated to the pilgrims of Santiago

>i still have few knowledge on the formal constructions of the said musical piecesCantus firmus? Try Fux's Gradus ad Parnassum, it will give you a better grasp of polyphony

is it to much to ask for that you get some former great concert pianist who decides to take you on simply because he sees the enormous talent within you

>>307Do you have the reach to play the nastiest chords without much pain?
>>320Yes, it is
>>319How old are we talking? It's difficult for me to say, so far the only electric organ that sounds remotely like the real thing (as in emulating changes of windchest pressure caused by the air pressure dropping slightly when many notes are sounding simultaneously to some degree) are those behemoths Johannus makes. I don't think there is much difference between sample based organs (hammond, gambitt, yamaha, etc) but you won't have the motivation to practice if you get yourself a literal doorbell with keys. Try them on first and if you can stomach the sound, buy it.

im working on some kind of musical software now
one is a tracker (pic rel)
second is a very limited tracker without samples but only square wave generators (fake bit, no screenshot)
and the third is a formula tracker (where all sounds defined by simple formulas like `cos(sin(t))`)
