I have observed some young musicians play and i realized there is need to give some practical guidance on keyboard playing. Having played the keyboard for over ten years, i believe i am in a good position to offer some of that in here as i also endeavor to be a lifelong learner.
For one to be great in what they are playing, no matter what instrument you are playing i challenge you to work on answering the three following questions; what? how? and why?
1. What are you playing?
2. How is it played in it's correct formula/structure?
3. Why are you playing it at that point or/and why is it of importance?
If you are able to these three questions well and gain such understanding, then you are on the path to great playing. They will give your playing a cutting edge above the rest.
Challenge:
From now henceforth, work at answering those three questions about whatever you have been playing so far. Work at finding out what you do not know.
Watch out for my next post as i delve deeper into keyboard/piano playing.
