ugh i just spent the whole day relearning a part on the third page of la campanella, i wasted my time practicing improper fingering on that part, it was impossible to have fluid timing with the shitty fingering i was using, had to carefully read which fingers were designated for each note.. i need to watch that, cant be wasting my time with nonsense like that.. Fuck. oh well, at least it didnt take me a long time to relearn it but its not accurate enough yet at the speed i want to go cuz i havent played it enough yet but at least the main problem is fix, no more jumpy timing.

nice been making good progress on la campanella, almost on page 5 or 6, still need to get better at page 4 or 5 but below that i can play it all at a professional level, just ironing out the minor finger fibs here and there but its definitely solid as fuck.
just ten or eleven more pages to go.. lool (have to look at pages again to see exactly where im at but i made progress forsure.)
i cant miss even 1 day of practice because my agility and endurance goes way down to the point where i cant play it and then it takes me a whole day of practice to regain the agility to play it properly.
fuck its frustrating.

I totally understand that, surprising how much you 'forget' after missing just one day of practice. Missing a few weeks or months and you may as well start over hey? Looking forward to another video from you but take your time

its not even forgetting how to play it, its just my fingers cant do it quick and accurate enough if i miss a day, then it takes hours to regain the speed and accuracy. i have never had this much trouble retaining ability on a piece before. Its definitely a full time job to try to play it professionally.

I think some pieces may have been written so the writer could show off their ridiculous skills a bit . Stick at it man, when you get it you will hopefully not forget it for a long time. How long are you practicing a day now?

still been practicing 2-4 hours a day, not skipping a beat. Going to try to record a video of me playing la campanella to show you where im at, i can now play the first whole 5 pages at full speed/dynamics, certainly past amateur level but not quite at the professional quality i want yet imho, but its getting really good
il try to have it recorded by today or tomorrow, depending on if i can get a fully accurate run or not.

How many pages is it total? Do you have someone to turn the pages for you? That used to be so frustrating having to stop and turn a page

nope i have it all memorized.
im still perfecting the speed and accuracy on the last bit its really good already but i want it better, its the double trill note run of the overall melody, the trippy sounding part.
been practicing for 2 hours today but its not quite ready for recording so i think tomorrow il be ready.

its 15 pages total.
so im around 1/3 through it.
its crazy though my skills have gotten wayy more precise and dynamic and i have crazy dexterity in movements i was garbage in. this piece really tests every part of a virtuoso's skill sets.
apparently this piece teaches you every technique to play virtually anything. cant want until i climb this everest of a mountain i must get the sttooooonee

So I moved out of the house with the piano. My fingers have been oh so idle lately

I'd love to be able to play piano/keyboards. (Good) instruments are insanely expensive, not to mention professional lessons haha I'll have to stick to guitar for now!

No need to pay for lessons, teach yourself! It's what I did.

learning piano can be quite difficult without proper instruction, but it can be done 
still practicing what im trying to record, turns out saying i was going to record it was premature because tbh i wasnt quite ready, was getting ahead of myself, but ive been grinding straight for around 4 hours today and im really making progress on making my accuracy solid all the way through.
i want what i show you guys to be what i hear when im not recording but to get it on film is still going to need more practice, but my sample is close
