I have been playing piano And keyboard for several years and have always wanted to play scales with much more ease, After watching your video on scale practice I have found out what I have been doing wrong, Thank you very much, I have found practicing much more easier now, THANK YOU once again
EVERYONE should watch this video before having to get so far along with their INCORRECT methods that they have to UNLEARN them in order to play the complex pieces & continue to grow on their road to being a virtuoso... thanks you for sharing THE MOST IMPORTANT LESSON on how to play scales EVER!
WOW!!!!!MY FRIEND I AM FOREVER INDEBTED TO YOU!!!!YOUR WISDOM HELPED NOT ONLY MY PLAYING SPEED BUT ALSO LEVITATED TENDON FATIGUE I WAS EXPERIENCING IN MY WRISTS THINKING IT WAS FROM OLD AGE!!!!!!!...;- }
Wow. I watched this video with a MINIMUM of concern and attention. And, I learned a very valuable lesson. "ROTATING" the fingers!!! Now for the fun part! "PRACTICING"!
Good lesson. Eliminating tension of the hand is very important. I had to pretty much stop playing from developing carpal tunnel, and tendonitis, and it was all from holding tension in the fingers as I played. Trying to unlearn bad habits is very hard. Too many teachers don't know this stuff.
Thanks for providing this. I am teaching a piano class which has had to temporarily go online. This is a great resource to help the students in our time apart.
As a beginning piano learner with arthritis thought I would have to give it up because my hands were always so tense (and lock up) But with your method I can relax my fingers and let them go where they would normally go and keep my fingers straighter. (had already cut my fingernails way down). Wow, my new keyboard is safe and so are my hands. I was never intending to go fast like you, just play without pain and injury. Thank you that you gave hope to so many others like me.
I'm a physiotherapist and want to give you the advice to try to heal your arthritis. First you should let check from your doctor wether your problem is arthritis or osteoarthritis. In case of both you can try to cool the local temperature of the affected areas by using ice. I recommand to apply ice 5 minutes daily. For this you take a yogurt cup, fill it with water, put an icecream stick in it, put it in the icebox of your refridgerator and the next day you have your ice on the stick. So you take the yogurt cup, keep it under running warm water until the ice separates from the cup. Then you rub with the naked ice the affected areas for five minutes (with circular movements like using a deodorant roller). And try to do that daily. After a while your body will give you feed back wether it helps or not. If it helps you will continue freely. The other tip is if its osteoarthritis that would mean that parts of the cartilage of the bones that a joint consists of is worn out or dissapeared and bones hits another bone directly which causes the pain. In this case you can try to rebuild the cartilage. You must know that the brain will start to build up or produce cartilage whenever it is needed. The brain will activate the regeneration of the dissapeared cartilage when two kinds of stimulus are given. Either one or two or both and that is if you pull a joint or if you exercise pressure upon a joint. Pulling the two bones of a joint apart from each other always relaxes a joint because on every joint naturally is a certain degree of a pressure in order to give the joint a certain degree of strength. So my advice is. Pull each of your fingers in its length. So try it with every joint. Each finger has three joints and you can pull all three joints separately. When you pull don't pull hard. Pull just a little with feeling. Try to feel it when you pull your fingers. When you do it correctly your body gives the feedback and will tell you something like: oh. That feels good. I like that. Oh that actually relaxes the joint or something like that. And attention: just a little, a fine pull. Do that as much and as often you like but as a recommendation do every joint: 5×3 joints ten times, ten pulls. You can also keep the pull and hold it for a couple of seconds. That's also possible. Try to do it as a habit every day. The more you do of this exercise the quicker the regeneration can happen. There's no garantee that it works but try it. I could help a lot of poeple with this method.
I have been playing keyboard for several years.. Now after watching your video my speed of playing scale is improved, what a brilliant teacher you are, thank you so much, and please make more videos if possible, thanks again
I started with the 'Thumb under' technique (see e.g. Zach Evans) which was o.k. for the beginner, and which meant playing at very slow speed and acknowledging every single key. But as soon as I was ready to speed up, the movements shown here, very similar to Aleksander Woronicki's, really make a difference. The feeling of total relaxation is just fantastic.
I was taught to tuck thumb under when playing C major. Rotating the hand is much easier and allows my hand to remain relaxed longer. Thank you for your Info!
Thanks, Most teachers on UA-cam forget that there is a PHYSICAL aspect of playing the piano. Please create some more videos on exercises to develop independent hands and finger dexterity. Thanks again. db
You are awesome bro. I was thinking the fingering is the most important thing to learn in piano when I was driving home . Then to stumble across your video from another channel on piano was just amazing . Thank you . I'm doing the same mistake with the fingers as you highlighted in this video. It was helping me with the correct timing though .
I just started self learning how to play piano so I've been researching tutorials based on my own point blank views on what I should be learning first and this hand technique is the thing I needed but didn't know the names for. Tyvm! I like how elegant the technique is, for such a beautiful instrument.

@@jelmermulder7276 this I responded to someone that told in this comment threat that he can't stretch his fingers on the piano very far because of pain caused by arthritis, that is the inflammation of the joints of the fingers. Because I'm a professional physiotherapist I gave tips for practical exercises what one with arthritis can try in order to heal the disease. And because I thought: maybe there are more people with arthritis that watch this video. So I decided to make this personal response public so that anyone that needs healing can give it a try. That was the idea. Now you know. You might have healthy joints but believe me there are those that have unhealthy joints of their fingers and suffer pain and suffer in general particularly when one loves to play the piano but is unable because of the pain. The general opinion of people and the medical world is that there is no cure to this disease. But I study healing since almost 30 years and made experiences with healing and know by experience that it is possible to heal a disease that the medical world sees as incurable.
@** This is what I learned. When you exert pressure upon a joint or when you pull on a joint, the brain activates the reinforcement of the joint in order to handle the exerted force. When as an example you carry daily a bucket with 10 kg load the bones must become stronger to be able to withstand the force. And part of this reinforcement is the cartilage. I can't remember anymore whether I read it in a book or whether a teacher taught us in the training. I know by experience that it works, because I healed in several cases patients with arthritis and arthrosis and their pain ceased after I pulled on the joint in a couple of treatments. Sometimes it needs a couple of months until there's an effect but it works.
Excellent tutorial on a very important topic for playing piano properly and easily, without unnecessary tension in fingers. I wish I'd been taught this technique many years ago. Now, I'll be passing it onto my students. Thank you for sharing and spending time to explain. Mucho gracias!
Thankful sir really this lesson will help me to improver my music performance on keyboard speedy. Your way of teaching is very simple & Easy. God bless you.Be happy. Thanks.
Thank you so very very much for this excellent video, Daniel. I have just started on piano (I am a guitarist) and this video answered many of my questions about basic hand technique. I haven't seen a better video about piano scales than this one of yours. Your point about keeping relaxed seems to me to be key to developing good playing technique. Your suggestions will help me avoid hand and finger problems. I've watched the video several times and I see something new every time I review it. Thank you!
Thanx a lot yes I am a beginner and I practice scale by putting fwd the thumb under 2nd and third finger but now with this trick it’s really helpful and works amazing it will take time for consciously to practice it but it’s really good way thank you so much
Thanks for this! I've been wondering how to relax the fingers and getting some speed. This video is a good shortcut to dexterity in fingering. Fine tuning the mechanics of the movement is definitely a wonderful piece of advice.
This "Rotation-Tipp" speeded up my scale-playing about 30 % ...immediatly... just by knowing it and keep it in mind and made them smoother and even more musically. Thanks a lot. :-) Great.
Many thanks for your expert tuition. Excellent! I’m ok playing multiple octaves up and down with each hand independently, however, I’m having great difficulty in coordinating the hands and fingering playing down the scales, hands together. If I can play up the scale I don’t understand why I’m unable to coordinate coming down the scale. I would be most grateful for any tips and advice.
Wow, no all pianist domain this technique, and can’t teach these in easy way. Congratulation. My respect for you. I will recommend you to all my friends. 👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you for your valuable presentation. I play rotation style on my keyboards since 1985. It is documented that C key is the easiest to play but I've discovered that the G key/chord is the easiest , over the years. I would recommend any learner to learn on the ' G ' chord. New keyboards have the ' transpose ' feature .Example ,You can transpose the chord to ' A ' and play it on the ' G ' keys. It's better to purchase a good 76 or 88 key keyboard with different piano versions and many other instruments and styles so one can play ' one man band ' also. 👍🎹👍🎹👍
Fantastic video. I thought this would be over my head, as a piano beginner. But as a guitar player; my teacher told me to be patient; my left handed fingers will actually grow longer once I relax and let the fine tune muscles build. Drop your shoulders, relax your neck, too! I really enjoyed this!
I an clearing out a space for the piano I am going to buy and I am so glad to get these points that will get me off on the right foot and make the learning more practical and quicker. It really makes sense.
This is great. I want to learn more on piano but I don't have it on my own. I Can't afford to buy but since I watch this, I want learn again and this video refresh my mind. I wish that someday, I can buy keyboard even if it is secondhand or cheapest one. Hehe My dream 😇😇
I have been trying to find this secret for a long, long, time. I knew there had to be some type of pattern to it and now that you have shown it in slow motion I can really move forward.
God bless you! I'm a new student (though BEFORE I knew anything about piano GOD gave me a song on a keyboard)! "Love You Lord!" was written in 1993 to celebrate my 21st Anniversary in JESUS! I'm learning piano now, and YOU are the FIRST online teacher to tell me NOT to tuck my thumb! I'm expecting the scales to come MUCH easier now! Thank you! 💞
Sir, as a beginner I got a suggestion. Please play slowly. Especially while you teaching scales, if you could display the keys you play, we can make note of those keys and that will help us to follow easily. Thanks for the assistance you extend.
🎶🎹💙 this is a great video but if you need a different perspective, maybe try this simple version with a free piano lead sheet -- here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/pHCc0qHpqQI/v-deo.html
What a nice surprise! I'm so glad I found you here as well. I am subscribed to your other channel pianosecrets and somehow came across this channel. You are such an amazing teacher. THANK YOU! This video has helped me understand why I struggle at times with playing scales fast in the songs I am learning. Practicing with this video has helped me get it right! Thank you so much for explaining everything detail and making it simple for us to understand. I'm sure I can speak for all when I say we truly appreciate you and your teachings! Please don't stop making videos. They are so valuable. You definitely have a new subscriber.
Great job....I think I finally understand modes....I knew it was playing the scale from a different starting note...but I thought the intervals stayed in place playing all naturals....I see now it is playing the second while moving the intervals....thanks...
I have been playing piano And keyboard for several years and have always wanted to play scales with much more ease, After watching your video on scale practice I have found out what I have been doing wrong, Thank you very much, I have found practicing much more easier now, THANK YOU once again

Very helpful. Immediately went to the piano and played a scale at least twice the speed I normally can manage.
This is helpful- like many people I’ve played scales with the under thumb technique before- exhausting- this is so much better

Sir, as a beginner I got a suggestion. Please play slowly. Especially while you teaching scales, if you could display the keys you play, we can make note of those keys and that will help us to follow easily. Thanks for the assistance you extend.
Yes a little slower would be nice .. good advice but too fast. He can play very fast but should go slowest that we can learn how to play fast too..
🎶🎹💙 this is a great video but if you need a different perspective, maybe try this simple version with a free piano lead sheet -- here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/pHCc0qHpqQI/v-deo.html
Nice..
Thank you. I'll try this out.
What a nice surprise! I'm so glad I found you here as well. I am subscribed to your other channel pianosecrets and somehow came across this channel. You are such an amazing teacher. THANK YOU! This video has helped me understand why I struggle at times with playing scales fast in the songs I am learning. Practicing with this video has helped me get it right! Thank you so much for explaining everything detail and making it simple for us to understand. I'm sure I can speak for all when I say we truly appreciate you and your teachings! Please don't stop making videos. They are so valuable. You definitely have a new subscriber.
Wow! I've never heard of any of this. It's great!
Awesome information! Thank you 😊
Great job....I think I finally understand modes....I knew it was playing the scale from a different starting note...but I thought the intervals stayed in place playing all naturals....I see now it is playing the second while moving the intervals....thanks...
