Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School of the Piano Pedal: Containing Explanations of the Best Usage, and Fully Illustrated by Numerous Selections From the Works of Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, Franz, Heller, Liszt, Schumann, Tchaikovsky, and Many Original Studies The Pedals of the Pianoforte are a vital part of the tone-controlling mechanism, since they add to the tonal effect elements which cannot be put there from the keyboard. To pedal well requires long practice, close hearing, and constant and many-sided attention. To pedal a piece well is more difficult than to write out a really artistic fingering for an individual hand. The pedals are the more indispensable because, since Chopin, composers do not generally write the notes in all instances as they are meant to sound, but as the hands have to play them. The remainder is left to the uncertain indication of an occasional here and there in the music. Artistic pedaling, there fore, is not only a question of making the playing sound better, but often of bringing out an idea which but for the pedal would not be heard at all. Pedaling is an art requiring as careful and as systematic study as scale-work, arpeggios, or any element of the technic. Fine playing is impossible without the pedals. Pedal technic requires to be taken up very early in the course, during Grade II at latest. During this grade all the manners of using pedals explained in Chapters III, VII, VIII, IX, and X have to be carefully mastered, including the theoretical explanations appertaining to them. The pupil is to learn all of the pieces of this grade. During Grade III he begins again and reviews all the matter and the easy music in all the chapters, including Chapter XI. In Grade IV he again reviews all the theory and the pieces and adds those of Grade IV. In Grade V, the same. Thus at the end of the book he will have completely covered the usual pedal uses at least three times, and should begin to have a degree of taste and discretion in this direction, too often wanting. Every piece studied must be thoroughly memorized and by reviewing kept in memory. In Chapters VII, VIII, and IX the pedal is begun with the first study. In Chapters X and XI the notes are first learned. Every lesson is intended to sound like a piano recital even when the pieces are easy. It is not a ques tion of How much? Or How many? But How?

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pedals of the Piano-Forte: Their Relation to Piano-Forte Playing and the Teaching of Composition and Acoustics, Four Lectures Delivered at the Conservatory of Music, in Vienna The importance of the pedal as an adjunct to artistic piano playing can hardly be overestimated. It is not too much to say that the effect of almost all modern piano music (from the earliest compositions of Thalberg and Liszt,) depends upon its skillful use, and yet no question of technic has been so much neglected. While touch has been analyzed in the most minute manner, every movement of finger, wrist and arm noted with the greatest accuracy, the study of the pedal, as Herr Schmitt remarks, has hardly gone beyond the standpoint of instinctive feeling on the part of the player. To demonstrate the importance of the pedal from an artistic point of view, and to discover the causes which impel the finished player to. his various uses of it are the objects of the following work, which consists of four lectures originally delivered by Herr Schmitt in the Vienna Conservatory of Music, and subsequently collected and published in book form. (It may be confidently asserted that no one has made so thorough a study of this subject as Herr Schmitt, and the practical results of his investigations, together with his position as an acknowledged authority on the question of pedal effects, are such as to require no apology for an English translation of his work.) He relates that in a conversation upon the subject with Anton Rubinstein, the latter expressed himself as follows: "I consider the art of properly using the pedal as the most difficult problem of higher piano playing, and if we have not as yet heard the instrument at its best, the fault possibly lies in the fact that it has not been fully understood how to exhaust the capabilities of the pedal.'' As Schmitt justly remarks, this utterance from the lips of such an authority is of more weight as to the importance of the subject and its present position than anything else that can be adduced. The student is recommended to read this work at the piano so that the different uses of the pedal may be practically tested as they occur. Where practicable, the instrument should be a full grand piano in perfect tune, to ensure the production of all the effects herein given, this being a point upon which great stress is laid by the author. Many of the examples are taken from the most familiar compositions for the piano, and if possible, they should be studied in their connection with the original, since many of the more daring examples in the third chapter, taken out of their proper connection, will sound wild and confused, lacking the working up to a climax which alone justifies their use.
