How to Play the Piano EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY SOFTLY

In this video, I talk about:
How to play the piano extremely, extremely softly (ppp dynamic)
Two different ways to play exceptionally softly
How holding and relaxing (idea from my physical methodology) helps you to play extremely softly
How “all loud” with accents (idea from my physical methodology) helps you to play extremely softly
How to reach extremely soft volumes from both “all loud” and from total silence
Why I really like a very, very “surfacey” touch for most contexts
Why you don’t want to be extremely “cautious” or “careful” when playing soft
Staying relaxed and weighty in your upper body even when playing super soft

Hello! I’m David, and I help both amateur pianists and piano teachers accomplish in 6 to 12 months what normally takes 3 to 5+ years through my unique learning methodologies for advancing with maximum efficiency, quality, and independence. I’m happy to have an active community of adult learners studying the piano with me from all different walks of life.
Subscribe for many methods, techniques, strategies, and ideas about practicing, teaching, business, life… and whatever else I can think of… as well as follow along with my own practicing and playing. I’ve been teaching for over 20 years and have been developing my methodologies for over 15 years.
For more information on joining my community of adult learners and to submit questions in general, please e-mail me at [e-mail]. I would love to hear from you!
