How can you play fast Piano Etudes?
Lucu asked:
I have this Liszt Etude but my fingers just go before the end and I can’t play it in tempo.Does anyone know any technics? or useful tips perhaps I’m playing into the piano to much or I’m
not lifting my fingers. If anyone knows any finger exercises to make my fingers stronger it would be great.

You need to use a piano with superheated piano keys, so that there is a real incentive to not leave your fingers down for very long. rrbowker2002
here is a helpful hint everyday before playing the piano get a rubber ball if you dont have one find some at a store , when you have the ball practice moving your fingers and sqeezing the ball and exersicing your fingers also before playing the big songs in the piano tried to practice the easiest songs and play them that would also help do that for a couple of weeks and youll find amzing results! good luck! soccerdude
Buy a gripmaster finger exerciser off ebay for £11, it’s a dedicated finger exerciser for guitarists and pianists. davey babes
Basic scales progressions (including chromatics). Start slow and build up speed gradually. Also – try memorising and playing by ear – this should speed things up as you won’t be bogged down with skipping between notation and keyboard all the time. Aslan, reborn
Learn to play them slooowly first. Make sure the notes are in your fingers. Then GRADUALLY play faster. Once the notes are in your fingers, the speed will come. aliecat
practice, practice, practice. try warming up your fingers with hanon exercises. yawmee
You can get metal balls from a chinese store, you sort of roll them around in the palm of your hand and they make your fingers stronger and more nimble.
Sometimes they even have a little bell in them! zoeksalamander
First of all, when you’re first beginning a piece, speed does not matter. Once you got all the keys down, then you gradually pick up speed. Now, technique wise, I’d be interest in getting Hannon and Czerny technique books. If you’re a big-time pianist, you’ve heard of them. Here’s a link to buy them:
Hannon-
Czerny-
I actually gave you a link to a whole bunch of Czerny books. There’s a few techqnique books there you’d might like to invest. By the way, what Liszt Etude are you playing? I’m really big into Lizst and think he’s a genius! Christine
