    Thank you, this was very informative!!! I've heard contemporary pianists make whale noises inside their pianos and have been looking to try the technique myself.

    Very nice video! Can this kind of playing on the piano be damaging to it in any way?

    • @RicardoDescalzo
      @RicardoDescalzo  11 месяцев назад +1

      Many thanks. I can’t imagine how can it damage the piano. Take always care with the dampers (don’t get close to them). It may leave traces of the rubber of the ball. Avoid using balls that leave traces and always clean afterwards if that happens…that’s all…

      Hi. You may buy the fiberglass rods in a department store. In Spain it would be something similar to Leroy Merlin (look for it in the internet). For the bouncing balls, try in cheap toys shops. Through the internet you may find both things too. Good luck

      @@RicardoDescalzo I'm getting more and more interested in the idea of composing for prepared piano in the future. My main question is: how much does each of the techniques change from a piano model or a piano brand to another? Is the composer safe enough to assume that the piece will reasonably sound almost the same on a different instrument? Since I tend to be a very "deterministic" composer, who likes to have absolutely everything under control in detail, a video on this subject would be very interesting, in my opinion.

    At first it almost sounds like a far less 'scratchy' nail violin.
