Piano E10 - Counterpoint
Added 2019-04-28 00:33:33 +0000 UTCThis marks the start of a fantastic new topic that we'll be goin deep into over the coming months.
For those of you whom are new to this word, counterpoint is the harmonious interaction of two or more melodies (or rhythms!). In other words, different things happening, at the same time!
The beauty of practicing counterpoint physically is, while playing two melodies at once seems kinda impossible with the brain, the human body can do it and much more quite easily. I strongly believe that muscle memory is more powerful than neural memory, especially when it comes to multitasking. Throughout the day, we find ourselves walking, while talking, while heart beating, etc. So, practicing physically taps into all of these polyphonal skills we naturally have!
It's also just objectively a great way to practice this instrument, and let both your hands really travel like two lil spiders around the keys. Enjoy this one, and get hype for this topic to develop £;^)
