Thank you for the quick reply,
So basically we should be chaining in a more meticulous manner so that each chain sounds like the ideal perfect passage before adding the next note? How could we do this without obsessing so much over each note to the point where we end up spending 30 minutes on 5 notes?
Another problem I faced when trying this was that I can play notes 1-2 and 2-3 good, but not 1-2-3. For example when I play the 3 notes together there’s a crack between notes 2-3. How can I go about working on this?
When I did deliberate practice for an interval issue, I can figure out the cause but then coming up with a consistent solution is where it falls apart. For example I figured out that from D to A my thumb and ring finger are too slow compared to the other fingers which causes the keys to close at different times; in other words mistiming between fingers. Other than saying “anticipate the thumb and ring” or “focus on the thumb and ring” no other possible solutions come to mind and, because of habit, I default back to playing it over and over until it hopefully fixes itself (and it usually doesn’t). How can I substitute these internal focus solutions for external focus ones (if that’s what would help)?
Thank you again,
Luca
