Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Rowland traces the history of piano pedaling from its beginnings in the eighteenth century to its first maturity in the middle of the nineteenth century and beyond. Pedaling technique was a major feature of nineteenth-century piano performance and, coupled with new developments in piano structure, inspired many composers to write innovative works for the literature. Rowland examines this through the technique and music of composer-pianists such as Beethoven, Liszt, and Chopin and follows the transition from harpsichord and clavichord to piano. The book also includes an appendix of translated extracts from three well-known piano-pedaling tutors.

Download or read book The Dawn of Modern Piano Pedaling written by Andrea Marie Keil and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although substantial research has been conducted on piano pedaling as it relates to certain works or composers, the sudden appearance of piano pedaling literature as a widespread pedagogical phenomenon has been given little consideration by scholars. During a relatively short period of time around the turn of the twentieth century, a significant amount of new literature on piano pedaling was written. This thesis focuses on pedaling treatises, articles, and exercises written from the 1890s to the 1930s and considers several important questions, including: what changes in the piano led to the sudden appearance of these sources, what the intended audience for this new literature was, what pedal techniques were being taught, and the forms of pedal notation that emerged from this literature. The appearance of technical literature for piano pedaling corresponds with what is now termed the "golden age" of the piano (because of the increasingly affordable mass produced piano) that reached its peak in 1909. As part of an exploration of the possible impetuses behind the appearance of this literature, the large-scale standardization of pedal mechanisms on modern grand pianos is detailed. I will examine four major treatises on piano pedaling. The first two, representing the beginning of this new pedagogical field in the late nineteenth century, are Hans Schmitt's The Pedals of the Piano-forte and Alexander Bukhovstev's Guide to the Proper Use of the Pianoforte Pedals. The other two twentieth-century treatises, representing the end of the corresponding "golden age" in piano pedaling literature, are Teresa Carreño's Possibilities of Tone Color By Artistic Use of Pedals and York Bowen's Pedalling the Modern Pianoforte. Articles on pedaling published from 1910 to 1930 in The Etude, the first music journal to focus on piano technique, are also considered, along with collections of piano literature created specifically for the purpose of teaching proper pedaling techniques. A larger issue regarding performance practice emerges through the study of these sources, with earlier authors attempting to codify a set of pedaling "rules," while twentieth-century authors increasingly emphasized the use of the pedal as a matter of individual taste and judgment.

Download or read book Beethoven s Piano Sonatas written by Charles Rosen and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2008-10-01 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beethoven’s piano sonatas form one of the most important collections of works in the whole history of music. Spanning several decades of his life as a composer, the sonatas soon came to be seen as the first body of substantial serious works for piano suited to performance in large concert halls seating hundreds of people. In this comprehensive and authoritative guide, Charles Rosen places the works in context and provides an understanding of the formal principles involved in interpreting and performing this unique repertoire, covering such aspects as sonata form, phrasing, and tempo, as well as the use of pedal and trills. In the second part of his book, he looks at the sonatas individually, from the earliest works of the 1790s through the sonatas of Beethoven’s youthful popularity of the early 1800s, the subsequent years of mastery, the years of stress (1812†“1817), and the last three sonatas of the 1820s. Composed as much for private music-making as public recital, Beethoven’s sonatas have long formed a bridge between the worlds of the salon and the concert hall. For today’s audience, Rosen has written a guide that brings out the gravity, passion, and humor of these works and will enrich the appreciation of a wide range of readers, whether listeners, amateur musicians, or professional pianists. The book includes a CD of Rosen performing extracts from several of the sonatas, illustrating points made in the text.
Download or read book Introduction to Pedaling written by and published by . This book was released on 2019-07 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (EMB). Pedal use is a fundamental part of expressive piano playing. But proper pedaling skills are not easy to acquire. Thus, it is important that piano students become acquainted with the use of the three pedals as early as possible. The stopgap Introduction to Pedaling is a collectionof pieces adapted to all levels of manual dexterity, enabling learners to improve their mastery of both the musical function and technique of pedaling. The volume contains both individual and joint studies for the three pedals of modern pianos. In addition to ten selected pieces from Samuil Maykapar's Twenty Pedal Preludes (1937), Introduction to Pedal Studies includes keyboard music from four centuries, ranging from Johann Sebastian Bach to contemporary Hungarian composers. Pupils can thus encounter varying pedal marks from different periods. Of course, not all composers featured in the collection marked pedal use; in such cases, pedal signs were added by the editor. It is a recurrent question of interpretation whether pedals should be used in the music of earlier masters. The sound of the modern piano is far less vibrant and rich in overtones than that of the period instruments - thus, it is not Bach's music that necessitates pedal use so much as the piano itself.
Download or read book The Singing Piano Tone Or the Artistry of Pedaling written by Helmut Brauss and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals pedagogically with a highly sophisticated use of the damper pedal of the modern grand piano. In teaching piano playing, in particular in the area of the so-called "classical music", pedagogues usually concentrate on the when rather than the how of using the pedal. In The Singing Piano Tone the subjectively perceivable fact that various pedal movements create different sound patterns is scientifically explored. The research is focused on the speed of the dampers lifting and settling down on the strings. The outcome of exact measurements supported by specifically designed technical and electronic devices resulted in a number of clearly definable diagrams representing the factual acoustic results. It it now clear that the "singing" quality of melodic lines played on a percussive instrument like the piano can be considerably enhanced. On the basis of this specific and exact analysis conclusions as to how to teach and practise pedal are arrived at. Particular exercises for piano students are suggested and a graphic summary of many possible damper pedal applications is included. In about 30 examples taken from the conventional piano literature the specific applications of the pedal are discussed based on the preceding research.
