As the academic year looms at the end of the summer, hordes of pianists return to the keyboard after a season of well-earned (and sometimes ill-advised) rest. With this yearly migration back to the 88 keys comes a desire to make more of our practice time, to excel in new and interesting ways, and to build that well-honed performance that will engage audiences and hopefully win a competition or two. Here is my seasonal contribution: a selection of articles I've written in the last while on both playing and teaching piano. May the 07-08 musical season be a successful one for both performers and audiences.
