About this piece

How to play Alice, Where Art Thou? on piano

  1. Expect weeks, not days. Learn it section by section and keep a list of the hardest passages to practise first in every session.
  2. Slow practice is the fastest way forward: loop the difficult bars at 50% until they are clean, then 75%, then full speed.
  3. Decide on fingering early for fast passages and write it down; changing fingering later costs more time than it saves.
  4. Short daily sessions beat one long weekly one. Ten focused minutes a day is enough to make steady progress.

In the PianoKite app you can learn it with your own digital piano over Bluetooth or USB, or with any piano through the microphone: the score scrolls past a playhead, the keys light up, and every bar gets a score so you can see what's learned.
