How many hours a day does one need to practice to achieve true piano mastery? In this video, I share my thoughts and experience, and also discuss how great pianists practiced. Many musicians ask the same question: is one hour a day enough, or should they devote much more time to their instrument? For example, Svyatoslav Richter said that even at the age of 80, he practiced about three hours a day. In his youth, however, practice could take up almost all his time. Other great pianists—Horowitz, Rachmaninoff, Scriabin—also devoted countless hours to the instrument. The pianist's profession requires discipline, patience, and constant work. According to renowned teacher Sergei Dorensky, the life of a professional musician is truly labor-intensive: constant practice, concerts, travel, and the preparation of new programs. On average, pianists at a serious professional level often cite around five hours of practice per day, although much depends on their level of preparation, goals, and stage of study. The key is not only the number of hours, but also conscious practice at the instrument.
