Hey Familia!!!
🎹 What’s up everyone — I want this space to be where pianists push themselves, share their progress, and connect. Drop in the comments: What piece are you working on right now? (Don’t overthink — even if it’s scales, share it.)

I’m still working on my schumann sonata no.1, but maybe will post a recording of mine tackling the allegro-vivace part! I am also starting to prepare Beethoven’s Les Adieux Sonata first movement!

Share a short practice clip for feedback
Want feedback on something you're working on? Drop a 30–60 second clip below. This isn’t about being perfect — it’s about being real. Show us your progress, your phrasing, your tone, or your composition ideas. Tell us what you’re looking for: – Expression feedback? – Technique breakdown? – Just want to be heard? I’ll reply to a few when I can — and I encourage others in the community to lift each other up too.

This is the “Introduzione” part of the Schumann’s Piano Sonata No.1, 1st movement. I just finished sight-read the piece like days ago, and is now focusing on combining little chunks altogether. It is my first time posting practice clip online so I’m kinda nervous haha. I let my upper-body available in the video so can check whether my shoulder is tense or not. I have also tried to analyze the harmony and intervals, but not sure if the sound and shaping are projective enough. I am kinda worried that my left hand might sound choppy. Would appreciate to receive some feedbacks!

This space is all about helping you take your playing to the next level — technique, storytelling, and making the piano actually speak. Drop a quick intro in the comments — who you are, what you’re working on, and what you want to get out of this community. Let’s get it.

Hi, I’m Jessey, an Indonesian studying classical music in Japan. I love Brahms, Beethoven, and Schubert, also taking on interests in Schumann and Bach lately. As current main focus, I am working on both 1st movement of Schumann’s Piano Sonata No.1 & Beethoven’s Piano Sonata Op.81a. I often find myself “stuck” when figuring out how to combine the “chunks” I have practiced into a whole bigger picture. Sometimes, I have trouble focusing, and might also become less aware mid-practice…hence the autopilot practice. In addition to that, I am still struggling with self-control during performance (especially competition). So I would appreciate if I can get a room to discuss anything about music, whether it is technical or more on the interpretative side!
