As you begin studying a piece, you're sure to have questions and elements you'd like explained. Things like:
- What fingering might I use here?
- What's the best articulation for an 'authentic' sound?
- How do I use the pedal in this piece?
- What chord sequence is being used here?
Use the Comments sections to get in touch. I may add a video piano lesson to answer your questions or simply write a response.
