Watch Kent pianist and piano teacher Louise Woodcock play Bach's first Prelude from the Well-Tempered Klavier.

How we must accent dramatic highlights within Bach's incessant semiquavers?

What tempo should we take?

Choose a speed you can maintain that you feel will help the audience relax into your performance and interpretation - aim to enchant, envigorate, energise, grip!

Bring out highlights with dynamic variation - consider rubato if appropriate - practice until you have technical assurance and mastery - a simple piece to begin, then add intensity!

First notes and rhythms, practice, practice; yet there is more to perfect interpretation: what an endless task is piano learning!

Always more to master, more to appreciate, and more to unfold! Take your own playing to new heights of endeavour today and release your budding inner virtuoso!
