Chopin - Nocturne Op. 48 No. 1

Episodes

1. 1 Continuous movement is the key We are looking into the opening sequence of this nocturne and basically we don't want to push the buttons so to way only. We want to be continually orientated on the keyboard instead 06:23
2. 2 Feel the intervals, don't just push the buttons We need to see through the musical though, not just press keys at the piano 01:32
3. 3 The thumb is a foundation of everything The thumb gives the arm a function, it builds it up while we play 07:49
4. 4 Control your sonority Fingeres should have a great deal of sensitivity to the keys but should also be supported by a moving breathing body 05:24
5. 5 I am the physical means of connecting my ears to my fingertips The right hand only 01:17
6. 6 Come up with your own choreography, hands should help each other A bit of ATM at the piano 07:29
