Hi,
hab' hier eine gute Zusammenfassung vom Chang gefunden. Er schreibt ja sehr viel, aber eigentlich lässt es sich sehr kompakt zusammenfassen:
His method is based on 4 major concepts: Hand Separate Practice, Segmental Practice, Parallel Sets, and Memorization. Here’s the outline:
1) Learn only musical compositions, no Hanon, Czerny, etc., but Scales and Arpeggios (III.5) are necessary.
2) Listen to performances/recordings, but do not try to imitate them exactly.
3) Practice old finished pieces Cold (without warm-ups).
4) When starting a new piece, sight read to identify difficult sections, and practice the most difficult sections first; then
a) Practice Hands Separate, in overlapping Segments.
b) Memorize first, HS, then start practice; the key to memorizing is to get up to speed as quickly as you can. Memorizing slowly can be impossibly difficult.
c) Use Parallel Sets to diagnose your weaknesses; Cycle parallel sets to strengthen those weaknesses and for getting up to speed quickly.
5) Play the last repetition of any repeated practice slowly before switching hands or moving to a new segment.
6) Practice Relaxation at all times, especially HS; this includes the entire body, including Breathing and swallowing.
7) Play through all mistakes; do not stop to correct it. Correct it later using segmental practice only at the mistake.
8.) Use the metronome to check the rhythm or speed briefly; do not use it for "slowly ramping up speed".
9) Use pedal only where indicated; practice without pedal until satisfactory, then add pedal.
10) To learn Hands Together: practice HS until faster than final HT speed; then pick a short segment, play the more difficult hand, and progressively add notes of the other hand.
11) Practice musically, softly but with authority and expression. Piano practice is not finger strength exercise; it is the development of brain power and nerve cells for control and speed. Add forte after you have acquired the necessary technique.
12) Before quitting practice, play everything you practiced (on this day) slowly for ensuring correct Post Practice Improvement, which occurs mainly during sleep. The last thing you want is to include your mistakes (especially from Fast Play Degradation in PPI!
