do you have tips for getting good at improvising on the piano, more specifically than just doing it a lot for a long time? my practice usually goes like this: i play a note with my right hand, invent melody from there, and try to play accompanying chords with my left hand, slowly enough to not be *completely* riddled with mistakes but fast enough to still sound like music a little. i do that for like 30 minutes a day (is that long enough if i want to get good before i'm dead?). sometimes i instead start with a note with the left hand, invent a bassline from there and play chords with the right hand. and some other times i play a bassline with a melody, mostly without chords but sometimes try to slide one in when i feel adventurous. (i would sing too but i live in circumstances that makes it feel like a bad idea at the moment.) do you have better strategies? thanks if you read all that, even if you don't answer
in my opinion, it sounds like you are trying too hard to be too normal too soon. also, something not clear from your description, what exactly is a mistake?
