Daily Piano Drill

Struggling to sight-read new pieces? Frustrated at how long it takes to memorize a piece? Daily Piano Drill is a self-study practice app built to help with exactly that — just three simple ideas make it work. Try our sight-reading drills built from real classical pieces and take on the classics you've always wanted to play. ■ Learn a few measures at a time, by hand The fastest way to improve is a few minutes at the keyboard every day. Each drill covers about four measures, so you can fit one in whenever you have a spare moment. Move on once you've got it down, slow the tempo or go back when something's tricky — and enjoy steady, step-by-step progress. ■ Build correct fingering into muscle memory Getting comfortable with hand position — finger spacing, arm placement — on the keyboard matters just as much as reading notes. Repeated practice trains your hands to find their place naturally, until you can play without looking down at all. ■ An "eyes-on-the-score" style that connects eyes, ears, and fingers Try to keep your eyes on the score as much as possible while you practice. Once what you see (the notes) and what you hear (the sound) connect in your mind, your fingers start moving just from picturing the music — and that habit makes memorizing pieces come naturally too. Whether you're returning to piano through classical favorites like Canon or Bach, an intermediate player who's always wanted to tackle Chopin but hasn't found time to work through the score, or a classically-trained player looking to practice pop chords and accompaniment — Daily Piano Drill is a new kind of self-study tool built to help anyone learn music by hand.
