Here are some tips for playing the piano: Hand position Curl your fingers downward so your fingertips tap the keys, and keep your little finger curved like the others. Avoid buckling your fingertips. Key technique Drop your finger to the key, don't hit it. Keep your wrist loose and let it fall a little. When you pull back up from the key, let your wrist move back to the starting position. Tension control Great pianists are masters of controlling tension. Know when to tense and when to release your muscles. Motion Minimize motion at the keyboard.

Sight reading When sight reading, focus on the written music and use your ears instead of glancing down to make sure you're hitting the right notes.
