Maia (5.9 y.o.) and Camelia

Camelia, thank you for your advise about books!
Bought this one and a few of them before and it's really nice books. Please, keep posting!

For the sake of keeping our diary organized, I decided to post here all the pieces we participated in the Winter Soft Mozart recital (2014-2015) with.

And, since people keep asking me this, in my proximate post, I'll speak about our daily program, about how I organize Maia's piano lessons etc.















Have a wonderful weekend, you all!

Hello, everyone!

These days, Maia worked on sight-reading from Simona's Repertoire albums (1 and 2) as follows:



















And this is her playing Chastushka (with teaching video and metronome):

And here she plays it alone:



Have a nice weekend, you all!

Dear Camelia,
We are unable to watch the videos since they are set as 'private'!

Oh, my! So, so sorry! I've adjusted the links right now. :kiss:

Thank you very much, Camelia!

All the basic skills to play piano are formed and Maia is playing the piece very beautifully! I like the rhythm - her sence of rhythm improved a lot! The songs' flow and articulation are in very good condition.

It is time for is to work a little on the hands position and piano touch.
Maya, please, try to do this time to time with all of your fingers:




This is our fingers' 'feet' Can you play the same piece for my trying to use the 'feet'?

It will also be helpful time to time to play the Chromatic Scale.

The point is: we have to keep our wrists over the piano keys by grouping the hand as it holds some apple.

Try it and let me know, what do you think! If it is too much to handle, just try to keep the wrists over the piano keys first.
