So here it goes! You know what, as beginner pianists I think it's so important for us to constructively and honest review and critique our performances. For so long I put-off filming or recording my performance because of my fear it would be terrible... eekk!  But once I started doing it, it really helped to transform my technique, posture, confidence, and, ultimately, my performance and enjoyment.  S

o today I'm sharing with you a live critique of my first Youtube performance of J.S. Bach's Prelude in C Major... I think I'll make this into a series, I found it really helpful and actually a lot fun sharing my thoughts.  

I'd love to hear yours! :-)

~  As an adult beginner I thought others may benefit from following my progress with the piano.   It has always been a lifelong ambition of mine to learn the piano and play publicly with confidence, joy and skill. I have been practicing now for exactly a year and I have learned so much that could help others who are also starting to learn this amazing instrument.  

Learning the piano can often be challenging and isolating, so my goal is to share my experiences with others and to help you not feel alone. I'm going to be real and honest, I'm going to include my outtakes and mishaps, my goals and aspirations, and my tricks and tips.  I'm a piano beginner and proud! 👍🎹 I hope you enjoy my Journey  Oscar
