I am back at piano

My teacher told me to stop listening to recordings of myself. (Whenever I listen to recordings of my self I want to quit). He told me to start listening to myself as I play. This is very difficult for me to do as all I can hear is my raspy voice counting out the beats.

I want to hear… Can you post? I play piano a little bit and it’s hard to play right…

let go of counting the beat…let your foot tap to the beat. that frees your mind a lot more to play the music that’s being read to your hands by your eyes.

I can’t post recordings or videos of myself because I hate them all.

That would take a minimum of 10 years of self training to do. But sounds like a good idea. I’ll ask my teacher about it.

I relate to this. I no longer play, but when I did, I never considered any recording good enough.

I agree with your teacher. Stop listening to recordings!
