Viac o knihe

"Through insightful score exploration, Right Before Your Eyes will help pianists find the "magic" in the music they play. Going beyond traditional analysis techniques, author Ruth Price reveals a fresh perspective into score study ; that if we start with our emotional reactions to the music, analysis and interpretation will flow more naturally, resulting in a better overall performance. Chapter titles include: Starting with Your Favorite Part, The Three-Step Method: Analyzing the Mood of a Piece and I Hate This Part: Zen and the Art of the Awkward Passage. What gives a piece its identity? What makes us fall in love with certain passages? In engaging and informal language, the author passionately delves into well-known works from both concert and student repertoire. It is a valuable guide for students at every level and must-have book for piano teachers."--Page 4 de la couverture.
