I didn’t even know this was a competition and that there should be set-ups…

No, seriously, how to judge that? Not everyone is equally talented, has the same exercises, has the same teacher etc.

You have to ask yourself how it feels like that, and maybe even put it on the teacher. Maybe he’s looking for too heavy pieces and you need very long to learn them, or you don’t practice enough… but now with 6 years of teaching you should be able to play 30 songs, I don’t see that.

When I get out of my band: we work out 2 to 4 new pieces each year depending on the motivation and have to keep over 80 pieces running somehow, that’s hardly possible. You can figure out we’ve been doing this for at least 20 years. This isn’t much if you want to… but it’s all sorting out.

So, don’t stress, and if it’s too little for you, I think a conversation with the teacher is useful. Gruss

Possibly, piano lessons are not effective when this impression arises from you. You should talk to your teacher about it. For me, this sounds (of course no remote diagnosis is possible on the basis of your brief descriptions) as if your teacher’s literature selection is not appropriate to your technical level. Will say: You always start something new, but then don’t get done with it, but at some point you go over to the next piece when the process takes too long and gets stuck. This is of course not productive and encouraging. Who of you makes the choice of literature, you or your teacher? I’d put on that point and investigate. The fact is that after six years you should have built a small repertoire of simple pieces. With regard to the patience to play, of course, they do not all have to be retrieved indefinitely, but they should at any rate sit to such an extent that they can be re-enrolled in a short time to be able to play a selection again and again.

I’ve been playing for 7 years, the first 2 with lessons, all pieces I can’t play by myself yet, but different sequences that I then series to each other, in my favorite genre, trance works well, as note sequences are usually repeated, and then will be transposed. If I want to play pieces, load or create a midi file, of which I can play similar to notes.

Unfortunately, as I only play for myself, it has not really been worth learning all the pieces by heart, except for some internet classics such as popcorn, a simplified version of Pirates of carribean and the like, which probably everyone can learn.

Whyever I have understood the question that you can’t memorize it, now I will not delete the answer.

I’d like you to read notes after 6 years, look into a book with folks/children’s songs, maybe your grandma. I’m sure you’ll find something you can play. In my experience, pieces with uniform Arppegio can also be played easily, so I can recommend gitarrenlernbücher.

When I look at new notes, I make it in smaller pieces for the first time, and after one to two hours depending on the length and variety of notes I can, and you can also play the piece almost without errors.
