    Really enjoyed to watch your slow practice! Your articulation and hands positionings are truly pedagogical. I could easily imitate how you play and resolved some problems of tension that I have. Also I could see that your pivoting of the wrists were proposal to move though white keys and black keys passages. And I can see that you play with the weight of yours arms, the articulation isn t only by the fingers. Thank very much for the class, Mr. Thompson!
