When you're learning to play an instrument you are always told to play in tempo. This is, of course, important, especially if you're playing in a band (so that everyone knows where you're up to). But knowing how to play out-of-tempo or in free time is also an important skill. Indeed, if you're playing solo piano there is really no need for you to play in tempo.

Learning to play out-of-tempo takes practice, but there are some general rules and concepts you can follow. This video covers those rules and explains how to play in free time while still sounding good. And playing an introduction in free time before suddenly dropping into tempo can sound particularly effective.,
