Playing Piano: Relax with your Mind 4

I am talking to a camera.

The main points I wanted to get on this is, one, you need to relax your brain. You need to just let things go. The other point is, play it easy. Do not play it hard, play it easy, okay? That will be so much easier for you.

Then you combine emotions together and that is the main thing that I wanted to talk about in this lesson. The piano is basically, a mind game actually. I f you wanted to play wild, you need to play it easy.

You need to limit your inactive emotions that you are going to do, like if you are trying to go from this E-flat here to this A-flat here (music playing). It is much easier if you do it in one motion, like if you are drawing a rainbow. It is just, you are probably in that (music playing) and then in one motion you aim for this key and then you just let your arm go and then (music playing) that is one motion (music playing). I do not care if I missed them out, I just keep going.

Now, it is a lot easier than going (music playing) lift up motion, next motion over, next motion over, next motion find a note (music playing).

(music continuously playing while talking) That is not very comfortable, but the (music playing), yes, than with that one motion (music playing). It just become smooth and easy, as easy on your muscles and stuff like that. But the only way that you can do that is you put peace into your brain, and you got to think ‘play it easy,’ ‘play it easy,’ ‘play it easy,’ and then, by saying that over and over, it seems that your subconscious strikes to like dropping out to make it easier for you. Just like “I want to wake up at 8:32AM! I want to wake up at 8:32AM. And, you just keep saying that to yourself over and over again, and then randomly you are sleeping, then you are just like looking at the clock, it is 8:32AM. You will like, “Whoa! Pretty sleep, how did my brain know that?”

I do not really know much, I cannot say and know a lot about the brain. But I do know that if you tell your brain stuff, if you keep telling the same thing over and over again, that will somewhat will come how things will be. Just like your brain that in control over your body. So, you cannot control like circumstances that are out of your control but, I know it will work for your like if I tell myself over and over again to “play it easy,” the stuff gets easy.

Next lesson, I am going to talk about keyboards on the piano on what ones to buy and stuff like that because I have been getting a lot of questions “Oh! What is a good keyboard to buy?” “ What are the pros and cons?” That will be the next one.

And also, another one that I am going to be doing is ‘how to find the chord on the piano quickly’ and someone was asking ‘how to find the key of a song real quickly.’ ‘What is the finger-inter-chords generally?’ and stuff like that, so that would probably be less than 25 or something.

Hopefully, this lesson was not too boring for you. I know I talked a lot and play nothing. Also I am thinking about later on, maybe starting and showing reading on definitions. Showing all the definitions in music like what a ‘libra’ means, stuff like that and then helping you memorize them.

You may have notice that I have not really had anything on the white board for a while, that is because my dad took white board to his office. So that is why I stopped using this.

I hope you enjoyed this, take care and you will be hearing from me again shortly, because I am trying to quite review these lessons quickly and have any jobs certainly done on November 14th.

I do not think that I will be able to talk for like three weeks or four weeks. So this is going to be a little awkward you just do not hear anything from me and then I will come back with this crazy job, because my teeth do not actually matched up. So, they are going to pull this, my bottom jaw, so that they match, I guess.

I do not know if you really care but, take care. See you later.
