Just as musical etudes focus on the development of skills and
address the technical problems encountered in keyboard literature,
the "etudes" in Stewart Gordon's new book also focus on ideas which
prepare piano teachers for meeting the problems encountered in
piano performing and teaching. This major new collection on the
piano teacher's art opens with an assessment of the role of the
piano teacher, and goes on to explore various types of students and
the challenge each presents: the moderately talented, but
ambitious, student; the late beginner; the unusually gifted.
Drawing on thirty years of teaching and performing, Gordon then
bring fresh ideas to bear on the often-discussed areas of
inner-hearing, pulse regulation, improvisation, sight-reading, and
collaborative music making. There are sections on performance
procedures, memorizing, pedalling, and historical performance
practices; a carefully-balanced consideration of the role of the
piano student and teacher; and realistic looks at the problems
facing the profession today, the dynamics of a performing career,
and the stages through which musicians' careers often pass.
Designed to open up new avenues of inquiry, to provoke discussion
and creative thinking, and to challenge and motivate students,
these essays will be vital reading for all serious piano students
and teachers.
