  • Try the alternative fingering for LH m. 1 of 1-3 and 1-4 – just be careful to move thumb up to C
  • Be very careful of not Looking Back/being the ‘bad coach” as you are playing. If you notice yourself doing this, tell the coach to get out of the pool, and go about your business

Etude in C Major

Etude in C major – Czerny

  • do VERY slow practice, like twice as slow as your current tempo to work on smoothing things out and giving your mind time to think ahead
  • m. 6-8 practice LH alone in blocked chords then as written and memorize, then pick up to m. 6-8 RH alone
