Pedaling - the Soul of the Piano

If you want your students to truly learn the mechanics of the piano, and understand and employ the many techniques of pedalling, give them this thorough and entertaining overview of pedalling in the form of a comic book. Author/pianist Peter Coraggio and illustrator Jon J. Murakami have collaborated to create the Art of Piano Performance Series of five comic books: Imagery in Music (5895610); Musical Style (5983557); Pedaling - "The Soul of the Piano" (5558044); The Spectrum of Expressive Touches (5558051); and last but certainly not least, Perfect Practice -or- Chunks, Clumps, Hunks, Clods - Blocks Slivers, Slices, and Globs (5558069). These comic books are nothing short of brilliant as they effectively convey the true art of piano performance in a way we can all relate. �Readers will get to know Maestro Profondo (musician extraordinaire), Musabella (Profondo's lovely teaching assistant), Agitato (neophyte student), and their musical friends while becoming inspired, motivated, and educated. �Recommended for piano students from ages 10 to 100 - from beginners to advanced players!
