This video is inspired by adult, amateur piano learners like myself who insist on tackling pieces that we know are probably just a step or two too far.  However, we're a maverick lot and won't let that put us off.  We will devote lots of our piano practice time to working on them.

If we're going to insist on doing this (and I know I certainly do), then we need to look for ways of making our stretch goals more attainable.  This involves research, having a good piano practice plan and, of course, time.

Here, I explain some tips and strategies to help you tackle these beautiful pieces.
