  • This video contains clips from each piano recital my daughter performed at for all of the 10 years she took lessons from Sue at Viavattine music studio.
    There are usually 2 performances per year (spring and Christmas) held at St. Catherine of Siena church, with a few special duets at Denton, Cottier and Daniels piano store.

      Haha, thanks :) I've on been playing on-off though, with only one 15 minute lesson per week. Looks like she's putting a bit more into it.

    • @totallyfake2852
      @totallyfake2852 Před 6 lety +11

      You have to practice on your own time. 15 minutes per lesson is hardly enough to even sit down and exchange pleasantries!

    • @imagzz4942
      @imagzz4942 Před 6 lety

      That's how it works in my school, since it's not a music school, those lessons are just some ekstra we pay for. Afterall, there's A LOT of pupils here, and a lot of them have these bonus classes. There's not enough teachers and time for anythiing longer than 15 mins. Unless we are willing to pay double, then we can 30 minutes.
      Of course, i practice myself at home too. But the lesson itself is only 15 minutes, once per week. On average, i've probably played about 10 minutes per day for those 8 years.

      Marissa Playfair so true. I have only had one recital where I didn't feel nervous....I still managed to screw it up though😂. I had this one state competition where I learned a piece that was way too advanced for me (rachmaninoff to be exact). I was too proud (or nervous) to ask my teacher for help, and I didn't give myself enough time to learn the piece to an acceptable level. Needless to say that+nerves created a horrible performance that I cringe thinking about to this day. That is my awkward piano story for the day that no one asked for😂

Not putting her down but coming from me for example teaching an advanced standard of piano playing in 4 Years, (playing Chopin etudes and ballades) I really feel it’s pretty bad. Just given the time. Practice clearly was not something she did religiously and did not aim to improve that way. But I take your point.
