The New Online Community & Coaching Program Is Officially LIVE!

Hi everyone!

I have wonderful news!

After about 2 months of intensive configuring, tweaking and testing, I’m happy to announce you that my Piano Community & Coaching Program at PianoCareerAcademy.com is finally LIVE!!!

 

PianoCareerAcademy.com includes:

  • A unique Private Membership Forum (The Online Piano Community);
  • The possibility of taking individual online piano lessons.

I decided to create this project for two main reasons. The first one is bringing the “Ask Me a Piano Question” project to a totally new level that will allow you to ask questions and receive detailed personalized professional answers – all this in a very easy-to-use, comfortable, fun and well-structured format!

Improving your piano skills does not having to be a boring, frustrating process! It can and should be fun, exciting, fulfilling and motivating – and this is what we’re going to do on PianoCareerAcademy.com!

The second reason is simple: every piano student deserves to have access to professional piano playing secrets – no matter if he/she is a professional or an enthusiast who simply wants to explore the amazing possibilities of this instrument.

Have you ever wondered why so many piano students are struggling in their daily practice, being forced to cope with low productivity, tension, an ugly sound, lack of expressiveness, hand injuries (and many other unpleasant piano-related problems)? The reason is simple: they lack correct information! The consequence? Incorrect, tensed, mechanical practice!

During the last two years I shared with you many expressive and technical secrets of the Russian piano school. Now I’ll disclose another one:

Doing the right thing at the right time!

Simply learning a set of general piano practice rules is not enough if you want to see a massive improvement in your playing. Yes, only knowing these rules can change the quality of your playing for good – but wouldn’t it be great to learn HOW and WHEN to apply them? This is the essence of the individualized pedagogic approach we use in the Russian piano school.

On PianoCareerAcademy.com, I will tell you HOW to practice, how MUCH to practice, WHY certain tricks and techniques work, WHAT is appropriate for your skill level, WHEN to apply a certain practice method, when to take a break and so on – everything based on your particular case!

Each one of you deserves to have access to professional piano advice and to correct information! Why struggle, wonder or hope for ‘good luck’ when you can simply KNOW what do to, HOW to do it and WHEN to do it?

On the Private Members Forum (the Online Piano Community) at PianoCareerAcademy.com, you will have interactive access to correct information, to those shortcuts and secrets that will transform each practice session into a productive, enriching, empowering experience!

What does ‘interactive access’ mean?

It means that besides watching those exclusive tutorials which I will post on a regular basis, you’ll also be able to ask me as many questions as you like about your daily practice, your technique, your posture, the pieces that you’re currently practicing, overcoming specific technical difficulties in certain fragments, relaxing your arms, improving the quality of your sound , your phrasing, your dynamic range, learning how to cope with performance anxiety, how to improve your self-confidence, how to choose an appropriate piece, how to concentrate and memorize better, how to practice with awareness, how to use your imagination for creating certain musical images… in other words, you’ll simply be able to ask for a real, professional and also enjoyable solution to your current piano problem! ;)

And, of course, I also plan to make as many video replies to your questions as physically possible – this way maximizing your learning experience and showing you in detail how exactly to overcome a certain technical or expressive challenge.

The online piano lessons will offer you all the benefits of a real-time, 1:1 professional coaching at an affordable price.

However, these are only a few of the many exciting features of my new Piano Coaching Program.

Are you curious to learn more? Simply go to PianoCareerAcademy.com and watch the detailed (11 minutes only) video presentation!

After registering, don’t forget to watch the Forum presentation – you’ll find it on the Description, Rules and News Board :) . It will take you on a quick tour of the forum, also helping you to set up your profile and create your first post! Everything is shown in detail, so you definitely don’t have to be tech savvy for enjoying the comfortable structure of the forum.

PianoCareerAcademy.com will take further my intention of sharing with you my holistic perspective on music and life; of ‘disclosing’ the secrets of the Russian piano school; of helping pianists of all ages and skill levels improve their playing; and, the most important thing – of helping you find joy, balance and fulfillment in your piano practice!

Don’t settle for old unproductive and boring piano practice routines! Take your playing to a new quality level, learn, grow, explore, enjoy! It’s a whole new musical world out there waiting to be discovered – are you ready to take the first step today?

I’m here to help and to offer you a detailed map with lots of exciting shortcuts ;)

And one more thing, a very important one: I will continue to publish new free video and written tutorials on PianoCareer.com, so stay tuned! Follow me on Facebook, Twitter or (and now also on Pinterest!) to get instant updates, support and motivation!

      Hi Chaz!

      Thank you and welcome to PianoCareer.com! ;)

      I’m replying with some delay to your comment because I’m busy with my new Piano Coaching Program at PianoCareerAcademy.com – there are so many exciting questions on the forum!

      The most important thing in musical performance is the artistic message of the piece – its meaning, its dramaturgy! Without meaning, without a message – what’s the point of all the technical tricks?

      Developing a brilliant piano technique without learning how to play expressively is like learning how to speak very fast without having something to say!

      Mozart’s Sonata in C minor K. 457 is indeed an amazing work full of bright contrasts and it has a very interesting dramaturgy. By the way, did you know that Mozart had an operatic/symphonic thinking? It means that when writing a piano piece, he was imagining the sonority of an entire symphony orchestra + the voices of the singers!

      In playing his works, we have to keep this in mind all the time!

      If you want me to help you make a detailed dramatic analysis of this Sonata, you can join our Piano Community at PianoCareerAcademy.com and I’ll be happy to help! ;)

      Have an amazing day and a productive practice!

      Hi Kristanto!

      Ilinca

      P.S. By the way, did you know that you can get a 10% discount if you subscribe to my email newsletter (and you’ll also get a free copy of my report ‘A New Perspective on Piano Phrasing‘)?

      • Ilinca says:

        Hi again Kristanto!

        I just tried to send you an email, but it seems that the address you provided while writing this comment is not valid. Could you please tell me your email address? Then, I’ll be able to let you know what you can do next ;) .

        Best wishes,
        Ilinca

    Hola maestra!

    me gustarĂ­a saber cĂłmo puedo usar el descuento que menciona: lifetime 50%disscount

  4. Ilinca says:

    Hola Barbara!

    First of all, I have to mention that (even if I understand a little Spanish) all the tutorials on PianoCareerAcademy.com are entirely in English.

    The 50% lifetime discount was available only for those people who pre-registered before the launch of this project (on February 15th 2012). Unfortunately, that coupon code expired a long time ago!

    However, I can still share with you a discount coupon code that will help you to save 10% of your first membership fee (monthly OR yearly!) ;) .

    Let me know if you would like to receive the coupon code – and I’ll send it to your email address :) .

    Best wishes,
    Ilinca
