Some pianists thrive in the morning, when their brain is fresh and the house is quiet. Others feel most creative late at night, when everything slows down. I used to do most of my Liszt practice late at night, but now mornings are where I lock in my technique. Nights I save for improvising. 👉 Which one are you? Morning grinder or night creator?

Practicing every day can feel like a grind — but there’s always a reason you keep showing up. Is it the sound of your favorite composer? The challenge of mastering a piece? Or just the peace you feel when you play? 👉 Share your “why” in the comments. Your answer might inspire somebody else to keep going this week.

Friends! Today’s masterclass replay is available to be watched for those who missed it. In the masterclass I talk about the importance of technique and why it’s the bridge between emotions and execution. Enjoy!

Yesterday was an amazing session! To all who tuned in, and to those who are catching the replay thank you so much it was an amazing experience. Please leave feedback here!

🎹 What’s up everyone — I want this space to be where pianists push themselves, share their progress, and connect. Drop in the comments: What piece are you working on right now? (Don’t overthink — even if it’s scales, share it.)
