At Ottawa Pianos it is one of our favourite things to see our students grow and to celebrate their effort. Through our Ottawa Pianos YouTube channel, we encourage all of our students, young and old, to share videos of their own performances – or even performances of others that they enjoy. There is something truly wonderful about creating a community around music. It can be something that connects us and something we can all appreciate together. We love to see our students show off and earn recognition for all of their hard work. They have earned it!
“Practice! Have confidence in yourself and your ability to succeed. You are never given a dream without also being given the ability to make it come true. You May have to work for it, however.”
“I would advise new students to practice, but more importantly is to practice effectively. The time put into practicing will be lost if not practicing the right things. The teacher will tell the student exactly what and how they should practice and what to focus on in a piece. If the student does this he or she will master the piece much quicker and improve at a very satisfying rate. It might not be fun right away but when you can play a piece well it is very satisfying.”
“Be confident in every piece you do ’cause in the end, you will almost always get it right.”
“I would encourage all students to try hard and practice hard. When you pick a new song, try to learn it and don’t get discouraged when you mess up. You will be able to play it with time if you just focus and practice. So always practice and practice and never give up!”
