I Wish My Fingers Would Fly Like Mozart's Fingers

Whenever I cut my fingernails I love to either practice my piano or type a lot. And while typing I listen to "Mozart - The Piano Sonata No 16 in C major" . I don't know what this sonata does to me but I feel like it helps me type faster. Of course, I can never follow the speed of the music, but it does transport me to a higher level. I remember when I was young and studying, I always listen to sonatas because somehow, they did stimulate my brain and made the studying easier. Are you this way too?

When I learnt to type with 10 fingers we always listened to music. I agree it helps to go faster.

I wonder why my typing teacher did not give us the "music treatment"?

@MALUSE It's a good method, you try to follow the rhythm an keep more concentrated.

We had music for the first time at exercise today and it did stimulate me to work harder and faster.

@BelleStarr , I am surprised that you usually don't have music with exercise. Tho me it is a must.

When I was still at school, I went to a course to learn to type with ten fingers. We always listened to music during the training sessions. We were told to follow the rhythm. I still type with ten fingers but make a lot of typos.

Sometimes, I think the walls in my room are not too happy with my bad playing.

@ridingbet I guess a sound of bad playing is better than silence.

@marlina no, i don't think so. as long as you play with your heart, even a sound of music that sounds bad, will still sound good and serene.

I have not played piano or keyboard in quite a few yrs, and so if I did, I would be quite rusty. When it comes to typing, I feel I am pretty good unless I am tired. Never can do well with typing tests due to I make a lot of mistakes but I consider myself a decent typist.

I think my sister liked doing that when she studied. She always had that type of music on.

Music helps stimulate my nerves when typing. I listen to music when I need to finish a task.

Music definitely helps ease many tasks. Certain music motivates me and certain music relaxes me. Mozart, Bach and Strauss are a few of my favourites.

I generally prefer quiet when concentrating, but soft music is not a bad idea. I like jazz piano.

I haven't been listening to classical music lately, but I do enjoy it. I took a survey the other day that incorporated some well known classical pieces and it was pleasant.

I've played that Sonata No 16 in C major so often, but haven't for years. I'm going to see if I can still play it. Music is always playing here, but I've never noticed if it makes me type any faster or not. I'm listening to Frank Sinatra right now and am swinging along.

They used to recommend listening to classical music while studying. I haven't heard so much about it lately though.

My favorite music to listen to when studying something or reading something very difficult are the sonatas.
