Summary:

Soft and Light
• Playing soft encourages you to avoid constraint, stiffness of the arms and wrists and hardness of touch.

Accent
• Less accents will result in greater speed.

Tension and Relaxation
• Relaxation = freedom = speed
• Every note has an opportunity for relaxation

Economy of Movement
• Eliminate unnecessary movements
• Minimize necessary movements (avoid overly large movements)


Chunks and Bursts
• Break down rapid passages into small chunks
• Practice in fast bursts
• Use the four burst rhythms


Action Points:

Record one video and:
1. Play one scale and apply the principles that you're weakest at.
2. Think of ways that these principles apply to the pieces you're playing. Give examples and a demonstration in your video.
