1,000 Days of Piano - Day 68: The Slow Road to Mastery

The only way I’m going to attain any mastery with these pieces is to slow down and learn them properly. I don’t want to do it, but I’m probably going to end up recording the same pieces over and over again. In order to learn thoroughly enough pieces to offer any kind of variety, I’d have to spend hours a day at the piano. I have a real time goal, and I’m keeping a journal of my progress. There’s no movie montage to show the boring passage of time. There’s only Minuet after Minuet. That’s the slow road to mastery.
