  • Thankyou Seymour...invaluable lessons! Many of us have never had any of this taught to us despite years of lessons. It is transformative instruction. Hurray Hurray!

  • @cddancedonk How kind of you. Thank you.

  • curves of energy.. exactly

  • Yes, the analogy to the violin and bowing is so perfect..

  • I was a student of the late Lillian Lefkofsky Freundlich whom you may have known.

    But the wrist's role in producing a singing tone came more from my having observed a few amazing Russian pianists.,

  • This is by far my favorite, and I just blogged about it at my arioso7 wordpress blog site.

    Long live the supple wrist.. which flies in the face of the Taubman contingent's beliefs.

    Maestro Bernstein, I cannot agree with you more. I teach the UNDULATING wrist as the staple of my private practice. I don't really analyze the anatomical detail that you do, but I know viscerally how to sculpt a phrase with the falling and rising wrist. This is pivotal to the production of a singing tone.

  • @waynekail Dear Wayne, you expressed exactly what I had intended when I made this movie. I am very impressed with what you wrote. I'm sure that you must be a dedicated and highly intelligent musician.

    Thank you for writing to me.

  • @waynekail I'm deeply moved by your message. Thank you so much.
