A lesson-based reflection on how technical problems in piano playing often arise not from lack of practice, but from a mismatch between thinking, visual perception, and movement—and how clarity can allow coordination to reorganize naturally.

A personal reflection on Enrique Granados as a teacher, exploring how his approach to interpretation, emotion, and pedagogy resonates with lived musical experience.

A snowy day, a quiet room, and Alicia de Larrocha’s Granados. Listening slowly, I found myself drawn not to the famous Nightingale, but to the deeper balance of Goyescas and the improvisatory spirit behind it. A reflection on listening, improvisation, and finding one’s place inside a composer’s world.

A quiet reflection on what happens when attention shifts outward and inward at the same time. How teaching, sensing, and movement can reshape our nervous system and bring both playing and learning back to life.

Commitment and motivation do not come from pressure. They grow naturally when the conditions are right, in learning as in life.

When children learn through enjoyment and experience, playing at home becomes meaningful practice. A perspective on learning, development, and why forcing practice often backfires.

What if playing the piano isn’t about pushing keys down, but about how lightly we place our hands on them? A closer look at weight, touch, and unnecessary tension.

Before rhythm becomes music, it already exists in the way we move.
