A comparison of the language used by selected piano pedagogues to address efficient piano technique

This study reviews and compares language used by selected piano pedagogues to teach piano technique (Jose Alberto Kaplan, Peter Feuchtwanger, Dorothy Taubman and Fred Karpoff). Examples of the language used in their teaching are provided and expressions used to explain their concepts are compared and discussed.

A chapter on biomechanics is included to supplement piano teachers with the specific language and other helpful information to establish clearer criteria in understanding these and other approaches to piano technique.
