The C Major scale is more than meets the "I," if you're the one practicing it!

The value of sending video supplements to students between piano lessons

arioso7: Shirley Kirsten

Since I'm in the swing of You Tubing, it's not a stretch to whip up post-lesson videos to send to students for mid-week reinforcement. In this instance, one of my new SKYPE pupils will benefit from a video that carefully explores the singing tone, as well as arm, wrist, hand choreography, since these are fundamental… Continue reading The value of sending video supplements to students between piano lessons

Launching a LIVE Webcam Piano Class at POWHOW! (Videos)

arioso7: Shirley Kirsten

Yesterday was an experience! A writer friend had referred me to POWHOW, an online conduit for webcam-driven classes, and my first thought was HOW ON EARTH did this apply to piano lessons which held a sanctimonious ONE-to-ONE student/teacher space for centuries? (It had started in Italy with Cristofori and his miraculous pianoforte invention) Would I… Continue reading Launching a LIVE Webcam Piano Class at POWHOW! (Videos)

A video supplement to a Skyped piano lesson (Instruction for Minuet in G minor from Anna Magdalena Bach’s Notebook)

arioso7: Shirley Kirsten

Following today's Skyped lesson to Pennsylvania, I created a video to reinforce instruction pertaining to the "Minuet in G minor" from the Anna Magdalena Bach Collection. This composition is attributed to Christian Petzold. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=htm1ez09Qf8 My adult student wanted to study this piece which has challenging Baroque-style phrasing and articulation. During our class time today we… Continue reading A video supplement to a Skyped piano lesson (Instruction for Minuet in G minor from Anna Magdalena Bach’s Notebook)

Skyping piano lessons with an iMac, Logitech cam, and Yeti mic (videos)

arioso7: Shirley Kirsten

Here's my set-up for Skyped piano instruction. A travel itinerary minus airport delays and x-ray scanners included stop-offs in Pennsylvania, Sydney, Australia; Portland Oregon, and London, England. Lessons have been scheduled as needed. A Power Point-less presentation offers more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkxknMXWdIY *** A Skype lesson-in-progress to Sydney fleshes out a bi-screen video landscape.

My First Skyped Piano lesson from California to Oregon

arioso7: Shirley Kirsten

I must say I was skeptical going into this until I watched the Skype screen enlarge an 8-year old to nearly life-size proportion as she sat comfortably at her piano. Her dad, a tech savvy parent with an ability to guide me through the basics of Skyping, was co-director with his web cam weaving around… Continue reading My First Skyped Piano lesson from California to Oregon

Long Distance Internet-based Piano Teaching: a novel experience

arioso7: Shirley Kirsten

I haven't yet jumped onto the big Mac Screen in real-time, seated amidst two tripods and three pianos with a pair of earphones. Instead I took an assignment sharing videos back and forth with a piano student in another state. (We have a privately arranged You Tube Channel for our exchange) It appears to be… Continue reading Long Distance Internet-based Piano Teaching: a novel experience

Can Piano Lessons be Skyped?

arioso7: Shirley Kirsten

The very title of this blog might send readers feverishly rushing off to other sites. I would have had the same fight/flight response before I heard from two happy Skyping students, one of whom was so pan-allergic that any semblance of a cat or dog hair coming through a vent would have placed him in… Continue reading Can Piano Lessons be Skyped?
