well today i wanted to learn a new song on the piano, which i haven't really touched in a long time already. i decided that i wanted to learn the song We Belong Together-Mariah Carey, so i went online to find the sheet music of the song,when i got it i printed it out,and i started to practise playing,well i had to figure out the notes slowly as its been a long time since i read a music score so i had a little problem reading it fast so i had to slow down to read it.i practised one hand at a time to make sure i get it right.once i got all my notes right for one hand,i played them both together,it wasn't really smooth and i had to stop a couple of times to read the notes.overall it was very choppy,so i practised and practised and practised till i can play it easily like without slipping or without missing a note.then when i could play it pretty well i added in the other stuff like where the music would gradually get louder or softer,or where it gets slower or faster or like where to play short beats or continously.well it took me pretty long to learn to play it well cause it isn't very easy to play the piano since i had not touched it in a long time,after all this i realised that practise is all it takes to do something well,and we have to consistently do it all else the skills that we have learnt would turn rustyLabels: lifeskill project
