Synopsis
Excerpt from The Synthetic Method for the Piano-Forte: A Systematic Development of Notation, Rhythm, Touch, Technic, Melody, Harmony, and Form
As soon as the pupil has gained a moderate control over the muscles of the fingers and hand, the use of the metro nome is advocated, until the idea Of absolute steadiness of time has been acquired alike by muscles, nerves, and mind, in the form of a fixed habit. Firmness and steadiness of step underlie all the developments of the running, leaping, and dancing, with the feet; and the same firmness and steadiness of finger action are indispensable as the basis of all piano-forte runs and leaps; in brief, of advanced technic of all sorts.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a comprehensive system for piano instruction based on the principles and ideas developed by the author over many years of practical teaching experience. The work emphasizes a holistic approach to learning, simultaneously training both the studentââ â¢s fingers and their musical understanding, with the goal of laying the foundation for a solid musical education from the very beginning. The author advocates for a method of piano practice rooted in physical development, stressing the importance of building strength and flexibility in the fingers, hands, and arms. This approach, which is presented in direct contrast to many prevailing piano methods of the time, emphasizes the connection between physical practice and musical expression, drawing parallels with the natural development of movement in infants and animals. The text incorporates detailed explanations and illustrative exercises designed to guide students through the essential elements of music notation, rhythm, touch, technique, melody, harmony, and form. While the book focuses on piano playing, its insights into the interconnectedness of physical strength and musical expression, as well as its emphasis on a holistic approach to musical education, can be valuable for musicians of all instruments. The author's unique perspective on piano instruction, rooted in a deep understanding of the physical and mental processes involved in playing, makes this book a lasting and valuable resource for students and teachers alike. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781333794521_0
