Chopin & Neuhaus' Method... Particular questions - personal answers.
Dear Visitor! Using the Chopin & Neuhaus'
Method in my everyday
piano-pedagogical work for about ten years, I gradually forgot all difficulties,
which were so typical to my former, likely traditional model of teaching the
piano. Putting such coherent, effective and clear system into action I
gradually noticed that the whole process became fully enjoyable to my
students, too. They started to play better and it becomes clear that they
just started to practice the piano with
pleasure... My Honorable Internet
Visitors asked sometimes for more precise clarification of particular aspects
related to their personal, mainly, piano technical problems. That is how the
idea of this page had come to light: I decided to publish hereby the certain
parts of their messages and, of course - my answers on them. Here you are some
particular questions and personal answers. Moreover, all of you are very warmly
invited to post your individual comments that might enrich our Collection of Piano-Pedagogical Transparency. This
page is actually open to you, too! Any your comment is truly
welcomed!
