Goals of a Dreaming Pianist

Ok.. first, thank you for this website.. I happened upon Andrews video's on Youtube last week.. right on. anyway, I guess I'll list a brief goal summary that I have.

1 to 3 months
Goal 1: Get a Piano/Keyboard - preferably a digital piano or acoustic, but ill probably end up with a low end keyboard to start, just to get things going again. Just been reading music and studying my Alfred Books and of course reading everything on this site and watching all the great vids.. thank you.

Goal 1a: nail my scales again.. ill probably work through my scale book, which is what I am re reading right now, and figure out this Circle of 5ths thingy again...???? I know it must be important, so Im going to figure it out, and commit it to memory.. Help Andrew...lol

Goal 1b: Work through the Grade 1 stuff.. Probably the Magdalena's Notebook... some cool pieces in there.

Goal 2: work through all the pieces I once had committed to memory from my past playing over 8 years ago....Sigh.... including Fur Elise, the Entertainer, etc.

1 Year

Goal 1: Play at Grade 3 level? Proficiently. well see

Goal 2: Be able to play and sing "Scenes from an Italian Restaurant" Billy Joel


More goals to follow...

Tony

that's a good list. You should visit these goals in the future and see how they turned out

my dream is to be a concert pianist and like that I am so addicted to piano that I say I have to practice each day around 2-3 hrs!

Great Goal.. 2 to 3 hours is awsome. I'm playing around an hour a day, got the first page of Bach's Minuet and Amazing Grace.. working on a Casio 61 Keyboard..lol.. every time I go into a piano shop, it seems like I can play better on a real piano..

You have spiffy goals dude, good luck with them.
