Having a refined piano technique is important for being able to realise our artistic aspirations at the piano. In a set of online workshops, Graham Fitch will show you how to improve your technique for playing that sounds and feels good!

Workshops & Topics

Fundamentals of Piano Technique – Achieve physical freedom in your playing by adhering to a set of basic principles and using movements that are natural to the body.

Scales & Arpeggios – Master the technical challenges posed by scales and arpeggios plus fun and creative ways to practise and use them for a variety of purposes!
