    Very nice. I didn't use the metronome much in my younger years, but more recently, I have become very adept at it. It works especially well for me to avoid getting too fast and out of control when first learning a piece. Everything feels more structured, and progressing to the final tempo without mistakes is a lot easier.

    I use the metronome quite a bit, I find playing slowly and loud coupled with slowly and soft (soft works great with medium as fast tempos as well) helps quite a bit to get a piece more secure. I think the loud practice makes you commit to the right notes and makes you more confident in where everything is, whereas soft practice helps you play more efficiently, clearer, and helps you figure out how to relax in difficult passages. Often slow practice softly helps me play a piece faster.

    I'm a drummer, i always practice with a metronome. But i'm not so strict with the time-signatures because it's way too funny to play a 3/4 that it sounds like 4/4 (and the other way round), just to confuse the listener :) What you say about the pulse is very important. It's crazy how many musicians don't seem to get it and also treat the metronome like an enemy.

Could you do a video on how to go about developing better finger control? For example, in Beethoven's Pathetique 2nd movement where the right hand needs to make the melody standout from the accompaniment being played by the same hand. I guess general tips and tricks on playing piano (as in opposite of forte) would be extremely helpful. Thanks again for putting these videos together!

    Hi Annique, thanks for this video. You included some valuable tips. I use a metronome regularly. I mostly play jazz piano, and set the metronome on beats 2 and 4 for a common time song. It's tricky, but most jazz is in swing time, so I don't use metronome beats on all four beats. Your suggestion of using the metronome for divisions of the actual time is a great one, I'm going to use it going forward.

    A good book for working on rhythm independently of harmony and melody is Studying Rhythm by Anne Carothers Hall. It’s expensive, (you can also find good used copies if you look around, which I did), but it’s great at allowing you to get rhythmic studying correct for differing time signatures and note values.

    I use the metronome a lot. And I am trying to back off on it while strengthening my counting skills since counting is a stronger means of getting the beat ingrained. However counting is a much bigger mental load which then tends to push me towards the metronome. I do find that I have a much better feeling for the beat for a piece that I'm learning if I do a lot of early work with the metronome with the piece. Also, a random application of the metronome will sometimes let me know when a rhythm mistake has crept into my playing.

    My problem is when I play I can't hear the metronome because the piano drowns it out. But I know it is vital to get your timing down correctly. Loved your description of where to put the accent (the so-called downbeat). Your video turned the light bulb on in my head about time signatures and the reason cut time differs from 4:4 time. Great video.

    Several interesting/curious things to share. I can't say I struggle as much with rhythm as I struggle with harmony but I definitly should play more with a metronome because those things you pointed at the start ("too long" "too short") happens to me all the time and wasn't for my teacher to call me on those I would probably go on out of tempo forever. The counting is something I've been doing more and it helps although sometimes it gets really confusing. For example, you are wearing a Ghibli shirt, right? Have you heard Porco Rosso's song "Bygone Days"? The slow swing and the polyrhythm really messes your counting every now and then but its sooooo interesting to see when you get to the other side of the measure in time.

    At first, I didn't take care about the time signature, and now I write it on each page at the top. For 3/4 I count at the black key, on 3/8 on the 8th, and 2/2 on the white. For 6 months, I work 3 hours basics per day with the metronome, starting as you with half the tempo. exemple : Czerny with 16th, I work on 8 th and make the accent with the regularity because you can be on the rignt tempo but not regular.

    I have a question regarding what you said about time signatures. I’ve used the metronome to hone my timing of 16th notes, such as in the Revolutionary Etude. If I play at 60BPM 16th notes, I found that the timing between each note was uneven, even though I could match the “click” on every fourth note. I began practicing 120BPM eighth notes instead, to make sure all the notes were evenly spaced (trying to use the original accents). Would you recommend not doing this, and practicing 16ths as real 16ths?
