This is a technique that is definitely not discussed enough! I hope it helps each of you in your studies to gain better control of your dynamics and voicing :)
Love your videos so much you really helped out with my Polonaise Op 53 with ur video
I'm going to try it consciously with the beginning of Mendelssohn's Andante and Rondo Capriciosso! I realized earlier when I was practicing that I kinda had to do the "pulling" to produce the soft yet rich tone. This video just confirmed that it's a not only a legitimate, but also necessary thing to do! Thank you!
will apply this pull to experiment with all my music :)
ah makes sense! it's almost like changing down a gear on a bike, your finger is travelling a further distance to depress the key the same amount. Therefore, key velocity is lower for a given 'finger velocity'.
One thing I've struggled with a bit is knowing when to apply that more pulling back technique, it doesn't seem to feel right on faster passages?
Really appreciate not only the thought process behind how you achieve that delicate stroked touch but also the generosity in sharing it with us.
âHear how you want it to sound in your mind first before playing itâ......worth remembering every time!
I know im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account??
I was dumb forgot the password. I would love any tricks you can offer me!
@Derrick Amir instablaster :)
@Darius London I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now.
I see it takes quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Darius London It worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy!
Thank you so much, you really help me out :D
@Derrick Amir happy to help =)
I'm 38, and a brand new piano player. I've Been binge watching your posts for 1 month now. Results are amazing and so fast. Thank you 100 million!
"Binge " Not a "soft " musical term!
I learned from a teacher trained in the Mascow Conservatory and he had me attack the keys in this way since day one on everything. I still remember how he said whether it be staccato, portamento or legato - you play it the same way, just how long you linger on the key is different. There was a short period of adjustment but it completely changed the way I played. You can attack fast and precise with the same technique. I find it is easier to move the four and fifth finger consistently and evenly with this attack. Maybe itâs because itâs faster and easier for me to pull rather than to lift my fourth and fifth fingers.
It is a very Russian thing to do!
Yes, good tutorial. The same principles apply to many activities, such as wood carving, painting, etc... If you can increase the distance you need to travel, you have much more control over the small details (playing softly in this case).
I have been playing for a little over three months, but I have been taking a lot of information in during this short time.
Dr. Mortensen rightly pointed out that the only real control we have is the speed of the key descent, since the hammer system is no longer being pushed by the time it reaches the strings. So, when he mentioned that pulling on the keys does not change that fact, I took it at face value. You, Josh, have given me an additional insight. That pulling motion is actually creating a ramp value where the key force energy is being spread out over a longer distance than just the vertical travel, and that may allow for additional muscles, and their corresponding neural impulses, to provide additional control over the imparting of the energy to the key. So, while the actual mechanism continues to react the same, the way the human body is sharing that energy with the mechanism could indeed be more precise. Thank you for sharing this!
Art Houston Thereâs infinite ways to play a single note
I love you seem to enjoy making these videos so much!
this looks like its very useful in chopin waltzes
it is
I just have to say, you're an amazing teacher. I love your articulate yet down to earth explanations and analogies regarding how to approach a particular technical challenge and in general find your attitude toward your students and toward life in general generous and good. Thank you for your work!!
Thank you for explaining this great tip to us Josh in a way we can understand.
Thank you for your advices! I like so much the way you play the piano. Here is only a demonstration, but I enjoy the moments you play. It's very relaxing.
Wow! I had never heard of this in my decades of playing piano. Thanks for sharing!
Your tips are so helpful!
Thanks Josh. I hadnât heard of these techniques
Thank you so much! As a child I was forced to learn the piano and I hated it but have discovered it again and I love it. Your tipps are so helpful to me!
You should do a video on Schubert - Serenade (arr. liszt). Itâs relatively simple but I feel like thereâs just so much room for creativity and expression
Awesome ! Thanks a Lot Josh đ
I love your expressive touch.
I remember watching you going over this technique in another video but I was so confused - thanks for going over it again, it really helped!!
Oh! I remember now, it was in that Gymnopedie tutorial!!! One of my favourites of your videos.
Wow that last concept is incredibly deep but really helpful.
Thank U so much Josh for the advice, it did help a lot,,,
Happy Holidays bro, I wish U best of luck always đ€

Thank you Josh, this was great!
OMG! This is gold.
Ugh, this wouldâve been SO useful a week ago before my competition
This is a great video, I think you should mention this strategy whenever you're talking about voicing, as it helps keeping the accompaniment softer than the foreground in whatever piece one is working on
For a softer, warmer tone, I roll on my fingertip toward my nail by lifting my wrist. I think the reason why this works is that the key goes down slightly slower. The movement may be very small, and I do not do this on every key because sometimes my wrist is circling down. I learned this from my Taubman teacher.
Hello Josh, I would like to tell you that I have recently written CC for this video.
Can you please review the CC, and if it is acceptable, add it to the video? Thank you!
Hugely insightful thank you
Thank you for the 'pulling' tip! It's really handy, and I wanted to point out that it's not just a mental thing -- it makes complete sense to me from a physics perspective. The way I see it, when sliding on the keys, you are increasing the amount of time it takes to transfer the energy from your fingers to they keys, lowering the resultant velocity. It also means that force isn't being applied in the most efficient direction, meaning less velocity on the hammer as well.
I guess you'd have to do the math to see how much of a difference it makers, so it might be partly mental too, but it definitely has a physical effect on how easy it is to play a key softly.
Greetings from India ! Josh all your videos are very helpful! Could u please do a video on execution of baroque ornaments, why different pianists play them differently !? Thank you in advance !
Thank you so very much. I adore your videos! Great explanations!
So, Lola is already 3??? Wowâ€â€ïžâ€ïž
Best wishes for you and your family from Uruguay, Southamerica.
very helpful, thank you
Sounding phenomenal
Very nice technique!
That was very interesting! Since you mentioned briefly Ravelâs Ondine, I was wondering if you have an introductory video on that section. I have been trying to work on that initial passage for a while, but it always comes out unequal....
wow thank you!
I found the pulling back technique effective for soft, repeated left hand chords. I can get closer to the bottom of the keys than when I just play with a very relaxed hand and wrist.
I really need this for Chopinâs G major Prelude.
same
Thank you for your work Josh!
Is this technique also available for playing a digital piano? Thank you so much
You deserve a lot more subscribers tbh
Josh Please could you make a tutorial on the Scarbo of Ravelâs Gaspard de la nuit!
I am currently learning Ondine and you just mentioned it, thank you!
Nikolor How long have you been playing?
@@Anonkontello Only for few days
No I mean piano in general
@@Anonkontello For about 4 years
Great video but is there any trick for playing fast passages softly? This technique is great for slow chords but an extended attack doesn't really apply when moving through cadenzas and other fast bits.
When he played Chopin's ballad i instantly fell in love with him
Ahmed Salim aaaand, same
I just removed my Yamaha YUS5 silencer or muffler bar to force myself to re-learn to play on an actual acoustic piano after playing on my digital casio piano for so many months. When I transit to the real piano, I find the sound is too loud and I have to use the silencer bar to mute the sound especially at night. Basically the problem after playing on the digital piano, one is simply dependent on the volume knob to easily control the volume but simply turning the volume control. This is not the case with a real piano where you have to train your fingers, ears and even feet to control the pressure on the keys and pedals to achieve the desired volume and tone. Guess I should spent more time with the real piano but with a digital piano I was able to focus on the chords and melody vert fast at any time of the day and even at night with a headphone without disturbing anybody since I lived in a flat with hundreds of other occupants and very thin walls in Singapore. Anyway thanks for your own technique to achieve the softer tone that many city dwellers have to grapple with. It may not be true to the composer intention but it certainly soothes the neighbours' nerves. Cheers.
One thing I really like about you is that youâre just a normal guy
One must learn to speak with their fingers just as we learnt to speak with our mouth, larynx and breath.
can anyone tell me what the piece on minute 6:00 is
Hi Josh. I'm finding that the audio is recorded a little low. Does anyone else fine this to be true?
@@MildSatire I guess that's supposed to be funny.
Close your eyes and you get closer to the keys to avoid unnecessary movements
man these tips are really good.
can anyone be taught to the level in order to play la campanella for example or do you have to be gifted?
With work and dedication anyone can do it
@@DavidCooll I'm self taught and can play parts of it but I'm getting to a point where if feels I've reached my max ability. I didn't learn all the techniques at the beginning like a starter does for example scales but play by ear. I just wish I was better.
John Doe Iâm self taught also, and Iâm coming pretty close to the La Campanella level, I personally found that I was constantly hitting walls when I was attempting the piece two years ago, but when I went back to it a few months ago, everything felt easier despite having not looked at the piece for many months. Iâm no expert but I feel like technical struggles are almost always a problem of attempting pieces too difficult or not having the strength to play it, the best remedy Iâve found is putting the piece down, working on something easier (and by a different composer!) and building back up
Being self taught does come with limits, but those limits are much farther than you might imagine
thanks everyone. the problem I keep finding is I'm missing hitting the right keys when I jump octaves up and down. my hands just don't go quite far enough or too short. Newberry in the middle đ€Ł
1:02 what the..
3:41 sounds like music from minecraft
I was doing fingers sliding on the keys but I thought It was a bad habit i had to get rid of XD
*random masterclass* đ
Thatâs what I feel like Iâm getting with every video đ€Ł

I really need this for a Mozart Sonata. I play like Liszt, loud and annoying
Liszt did NOT play loud and annoying.
lawrence wei Scratch that. Just loud
My Liszt, I mean fake imitation Liszt (me)
Itâs so terribly disappointing when someone I admire greatly, not only admits their religiosity, but implies they are brainwashing their supposedly loved and protected child in it too.
Zoe Summers how is this inherently bad, even if youâre an atheist you have to admit it can be a great thing if people have a moral system. Basically religion is just a strong set of values & morales embedded in a story.
I would always prefer sb woth values over a spineless creature with no values
