Yes thats all wonderful explanations on interpretation,but how can the student over come this problems if she is so cramp t technically. Look at her hands the shape of her fingers and wrists. She lacks the technical gestures and motion to produce such saddle tones. Compare the Teachers hands to the student and listen to the difference in quality of sound the Teacher produces and the student. His is rich hers is meek. She needs help on the technical level to free up to obtain this kind of nuance.

he is showing off.. also a good student dont need explanations like. now piano is coming or forte is coming..... or diminuento...etc etc... he/she should already know the score. and one more thing. she is lacking of technique. fix that first then the sound. that's what make famous Russian School. no one luck of technique. have fun trying to play by paying money. we wont see you in future for sure. :)

@ObeeLektro How is that different than being told what to do other than you get a far deeper and broader understanding of technique. You learn more than just, "This is what you do." You learn, "This is what you do and this is why you do it." I understand that some teachers do a better job with teaching why things are done than others. But if you're not being taught what you need, then you need to figure it out yourself.

@ObeeLektro What is the difference between being told something and reading it? And the difference between being showed something by the teacher and simply watching them do it while they play? There isn't any difference if you're looking at what you need to look at. The book tells you what you need to learn and it gives you a description. Then, you go to a lesson and watch for those things when your teacher is playing. Then you try to replicate it.

[ifreshwater]

@ObeeLektro How, then, are you to be taught? Or to teach it? You can't use words to describe it (if a book can't do it then spoken word certainly can't). You can't use your eyes to learn it (if your eyes can't catch the subtle movements you can't really watch it). How are you meant to know how each movement effects the sound production knowing little to nothing of technique? You watch your teacher, and you read.

[ObeeLektro]

@ifreshwater The positioning of your legs on the floor, proper alignment of your shoulders elbows, proper posture of your lower and upper back with different weight displacement for fluidity and effortless connection to the sequence of different movements necessary to play the whole work, and not to forget to keep your natural breathing process from beginning to an end of the piece.

[ObeeLektro]

@ifreshwater Next problem sometimes the movements are so saddle that things might appear correct to your eyes, and you can only detect a problem by kinetic recognition or difference in sound production. So explain to me how someone who knows nothing, or very little, or even quite a bit about technique can figure out all this things out, just by reading a book, or watching their teacher.
