Piano Technique - Tone Touch Phrasing And Dynamics Book 📚

Tone, Touch, Phrasing and Dynamics

This well-known pianist and teacher's guide to sound piano technique covers tone production, fingering, pedalling, chords, sight-reading, and more. This book contains 63 musical excerpts and includes works by such masters as Beethoven, Chopin, Schumann, Mendelssohn, and Liszt.

There are numerous exercises, complemented by 64 black-and-white photographs, demonstrate a variety of technical, stylistic, and musical approaches.  

Practice is indeed the soul of piano technique and this concise handbook — by a noted pianist and teacher — tells you how to get the most out of it. It is a working manual, containing technical studies, excerpts from the works of the great piano masters, and photographs — all of which help the students develop a sound technique in a comparatively short time.

Ms. Philipp has distilled the experience of a lifetime of playing and teaching (she studied with students of Liszt and Busoni) into a highly useful guide for all piano students. 96 pages. Author: Lillie H. Philipp. 

The text is replete with hints and suggestions for developing better technique:

  • Melody — If you want a melody to sing, keep the accompanying figuration softer and you will get the desired effect.
  • Practice — Practicing pianissimo, as many great pianists have been known to do, will help further technique and improve velocity.
  • Pedalling — If you want an individual tone to be particularly beautiful, catch it with the pedal just after you have hit it.
