How To Exactly Prepare For Piano Licentiate Exam Part 1

Over the years of preparing for my Licentiate Piano Exam, I have made many discoveries and experimentation at the piano. I have looked through many piano pedagogy literature to help myself to be where i am today.

and in this new series, I wish to use my Psychology background to break down and document

every single thought process that I had thus far. Things that are not often talked enough about... for example You are not a child prodigy , you do not graduate from a conservatory, how exactly do you put together a 42mins programme at a high level? A common response is " Just practice.." but what exactly do you do moment to moment during practice?

This are some of the questions that i have spent considerable braincells to ponder about

and i wish to share some of my findings to democratize this process.

if you like this type of content, please do like , comment and subscribe. This is work that i have

spent my whole adult life researching.
