    Merci beaucoup for this video. I haven't heard of the first three composers, they sound interesting.
    I use Schäffer Opus 45 for sightreading, and made the most progress when I started sightreading every day.
    I was stalling in my progress even though I had "mastered" my Level One books. After over a year of playing, I went back to my La Méthode Rose (bilingual) book and started on page one, and treated every exercise as a sightreading challenge. My piano teacher has commented on my improvement when I went back to basics.

      Many thanks for the input! I don't know the Schäffer but will check it out :)

    you should have a look at Olivier HAURAY 'S "Initiation au piano par les styles" in two volumes Ed. Salabert, Paris : a large choice of nice pieces for beginners !

    Dimitri Kabalevsky’s music for beginners is highly recommended. Beautiful melodies.

    I think my hardest piece i play is ballade no 1 by Chopin. Is it a problem for to learn moonlight sonata 3rd movement?

    • @petersonpiano
      @petersonpiano  Před 7 měsíci +1

      The 3rd movement is actually not as hard as you might think especially if you practice SLOWLY. If you've played the 1st Ballade of Chopin, you might be able to tackle it!

      Ballade no 1 is much harder than moonlight Sonata. You should be fine.

    A peça de bach é linda e fácil o que dificulta são os inúmeros acordes diferentes essa é a maior dificuldade

    if i start learning tomorrow, how long till i'm able to play Chopin's - Op 34 No 3 in F major? :P

    • @petersonpiano
      @petersonpiano  Před 7 měsíci +3

      Great question! It's quite an advanced piece. I would say if you practiced an average of an hour a day, it would take around four or five years. That might not be the answer you wanted to hear, but that would be my honest assessment. Of course, some people might be able to learn it in less time.

    There’s no way a beginner is playing the arpeggios at the beginning moonlight sonata.

      Depends on whether you are talking first movement or third. First movement is way easier.

    • @kaleimaile
      @kaleimaile Před 7 měsíci

      @@smileydoug , 1st movement is easier, but it’s not a beginner piece. I didn’t start playing Moonlight Sonata till 10 years into my training and I was playing other advanced pieces at that time. There’s no way when I was 8 years old I would be playing that piece and I had been playing for 4 years by that time.

    I quit piano at Moonlight Sonata when I was 14. It was such a BORING piece. lol! I also had been playing for 8-10 years by that point. 😂😂😂😂
    I am teaching myself, ‘The Entertainer’ right now. It’s hard only b/c I have small hands. lol!

    • @petersonpiano
      @petersonpiano  Před 7 měsíci

      After 8-10 years I'm sure you have a great basis! Yes, the Entertainer has lots of octaves and big chords, not easy for small hands. Good luck!

      @@petersonpiano , thanks. My hope is to get on the worship team at church by 2025. The piano player told me it would not take that long to switch from classical to chord work (been doing for a bit already) and told me: 1. Practice with a metronome (my nemesis as a kid) 2. Look up the Nashville Number system and 3. Learn to play by ear as the Worship Leader will say, “Play this…”. Do you have any tips for me? I plan on taking lessons again soon. Also, what might auditions look like for a worship team? How can I prepare for it?
