Synopsis

Informative and insightful, this comprehensive manual presents intermediate to advanced pianists with invaluable lessons for developing an artful pedal technique. Students will appreciate the clearly written instructions and detailed pedal notation in executing the many exercises in this hands-on workbook. Features include exercises to develop control of the damper pedal at various depths, lessons in playing with such techniques as syncopated pedal, simultaneous pedal, flutter pedal, and legatissimo pedal. There is extensive discussion of the stylistic principles of applying the pedal in Baroque, Classical, Romantic, Impressionistic, and Contemporary music, There are examples from the music of Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Schubert, Mendelssohn, Chopin, Schumann, Liszt, Brahms, Debussy, Ravel, Bartók, and others, along with examples from the music of North American composers such as Samuel Barber, Boris Berlin, Aaron Copland, Jean Coulthard, and Alexina Louie. Teachers find this book most helpful as they provide their students of all ages with a fine background in pedaling.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Katherine Faricy graduated from the Oberlin College Conservatory of Music with a bachelor’s degree in music education, and received her master of fine arts degree in piano performance from the University of Minnesota. She also studied privately for four years with the renowned concert pianist, Madame Lili Kraus. It was during studies with Kraus that she became very aware of the importance of pedaling in artistic performance and how few people are taught a methodical approach to learning its technique. The lack of materials for teaching pedaling led Faricy to create two valuable books, "Artistic Pedal Technique – Lessons for Intermediate and Advancd Pianists:, and "Pedaling~ Colors in Sound; Lessons and Repertoire for Elementary Students". A member of the faculty at the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota since 1975, she has taught undergraduate piano, piano ensemble, accompanying, and music literature; as well as graduate piano and courses in performance practices, piano literature, and piano pedagogy. A frequent recitalist and soloist with orchestras, Faricy is also in frequent demand as an adjudicator and clinician, giving workshops and lecture/demonstrations to many teachers’ groups including MTNA state and national conventions.
