DEVELOPMENT OF THE PIANO PERFORMER SOUND TECHNIQUE: A COMPREHENSIVE EMPIRICAL APPROACH

Abstract

The purpose of the study: to consider and offer practicing pianists a number of techniques and exercises that contribute to the development of a variety of carcasses and the mastery of subtle mastery of their pianistic apparatus. Turning to the study and systematization of the pianist's methods of working on improving his technical equipment, one should approach such a key parameter of mastery as the piano sound with special care. The research methodology is based on an integrated approach to the study of instructional material and includes a method for describing methods of working on sound extraction, laying the first finger, as well as options for working out the activity and independence of the fingers. The elements of the pianist's work system described in the article are also based on an empirical approach. Scientific novelty consists in documenting some of the principles of didactic pedagogy of E. Vaulin and presenting the author's exercises and techniques for elaborating the texture, aimed, ultimately, at solving both motor and artistic problems. Conclusions. Work on the piano technique in no way can be limited only to the range of exercises, which are based on the issue of developing fluency, dexterity, strength and evenness of the fingers, it is necessary to expand this daily, working pianistic arsenal, used, for example, when playing, tricks that work on a variety of ink, a filigree dressing of mastery of the instrument on a quiet dynamics, genuine Legato. Performed outside the requirements of “power” or forced play, the proposed exercises develop flexibility, density, plasticity and controllability of sound production. In addition to the aforementioned properties, sensitivity of auditory control, concentration of attention and collected hands are also tirelessly trained. The recommendations formulated in the body of work contribute to the harmonious development of the technical equipment of the performer and, ultimately, serve to reveal the sound and artistic image of any work.
