It’s important to dive deeper into musicality after you have accomplished the basic physical movements.

I encourage students to stick with pieces for awhile to see how they ‘settle’ into the piece in terms of relaxation. Aim for an even rhythm, nice tone, arched phrases, and a prominent melody. As a basic check you might put a metronome on and be able to play through it as that is a common issue. When should I move onto the next piece? Aim for a confident playing of the piece. So, I highly recommend you memorize your pieces but don’t be too hard on yourself, just do a little bit of memory work everyday and see how it goes. Also, our brains seem to get used to it as a habit and memorizes more efficiently if we do it regularly. Should I memorize the pieces and should I keep them in my repertoire? Although I’m not strict about memorization with my students, I do believe that we play better when the piece is memorized.
