Thanks, clayts, thats the tip I was waiting for.
I always play with both hands.
I am glad I have two hands.
Once, when I had a motorcycle accident, one hand was bandaged up.
I nearly played with just one hand, but instead, I ripped the bandages open so my fingers were poking out, one was bleeding a little bit, but I still played with both hands.
Did I do Right?
This is magic advice thanks. I want to be much better than I am, I want to be master piano player. I try hard.

I am trying to learn a this piece, but seem to have a lot of difficulty with it, I'm sure your tips will help me master this some day! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiDLBd3Rx90In all seriousness though, not only do I disagree completely with this particular tip, I see no reason why you should make a new thread for each and every tip. Please consider sticking them all in one thread if you absolutely do feel the need to post them.

playing the piano with only one hand it will take you twice as long to do anything this is obvious to anyone with more than a few brain cells as one hand can play ten notes but both hands will be able to play 20 notes in the same time so 20 is twice as many as 10 so you will be learning twice as fast so please stop going about with blinkers on and saying that nothing works because a lot of things will work so i will be playing the moonight song soon and i will post it for you on the forum so as i have finished the 2 book and now will be starting the 3 book very soon playing the correct way with both hands when you press the buttons on your computer do you use both hands yes you do as only using one hand would be silly so it is the same on the piano keys one hand does one thing thing in the same time as 2 hands do 2 things so by doing 2 things we learn twice as quick as doing 1 thing which is obvious its not rocket science

I disagree. I find playing hands separately allows each hand to learn its part in a way that is difficult to do when playing hands together. I would never avoid playing hands separately. I think it's a valuable tool in learning a piece. I think the coordination involved in being able to play both hands separately and together is important, rather than only being able to play hands together. If you only play hands together, without allowing each hand to play hands separately, in a way you are shortcircuiting independence of hands because you're only learning the piece as one interlocked mesh rather than as two coordinated but separate lines.
