Today we're going in depth with what it really takes to play a beautiful Ondine (from Ravel's Gaspard de la Nuit) and how to take a really challenging piece and practise it like a boss. In this video I break down the mechanics behind the flying fingers, the detailed work that goes into making it seem effortless... and how to practise this stunning piece to really master it (and possibly, one day, get that famous Argerich sparkle).
- An insight into professional piano practice and into the specific difficulty of Ravel's Ondine, sharing the secrets and tricks I use to master those 'impossible' passages.
- Advanced piano practice tips and techniques that you can apply to Gaspard de la Nuit or to any other piece you're working on.
- Second half of the piece coming next week!
