    Thank you, I’ve never heard an instructor address that fear of giving up the security of knowing where I am on the keyboard during arpeggios. So I’ve always tried to keep connection between octaves and never attempted fly overs. This video is a real confidence builder.

    I'm so grateful for finding your channel. I already bought your course on Hanon and just purchased this Czerny course. I think you are a great teacher and wish that technical skills were more adressed by the teachers I had in the past. I intend to study your courses and find that ease in playing ! One question; what would be your advice in the descending form of this arpeggio and how would you play an arpeggio starting on a black key (Eb for example)?

  • @ml4119
    @ml4119 Před rokem

    This is a very insightful video. Do you suggest then that in all instances arpeggios should be played without tucking the thumb under the palm? I guess shifting can also be applied to scales? Your method seems to be more gentle on the thumb which takes the same role as the other fingers (moving up and down rather then sideways). Anyway, the method you propose seems to be more efficient, less painful but would need a lot of practice for fast arpeggios/scales.

    • @DenZhdanovPianist
      @DenZhdanovPianist  Před rokem +1

      There are two special videos for scales on this channel. Tucking the thumb under slows you down, and as faster you play as lesser this motion should be.
