Re: Some Beginner Questions

I do what David does.

When practicing Mozart's Concerto, I realized that after working on the piece, I essentially memorized the measures, and used the music as a reference. Basically it's remembering the patterns. For instance, when I play a sixteenth/thirty-second/ run, I usually just think about "feeling" all of my fingers hit the keys so that every note speaks, while simeltaneously scanning ahead with my eyes. I see every note, but I don't have to consciously pick them out; I've been conditioned to do so.

Sorry if that wasn't clear.
