Entspannung am Klavier
Relaxing at the piano can mean two things:
I relax while playing
I relax through playing.
In both cases, it’s about a felt and shaped movement of the fingers — but also of the hands, arms, torso, spine, pelvis… in short: the entire body.
Relaxing at the piano
means much more than just playing calm music —
it means sensing the subtlest movements and impulses of our body,
letting their energy and vibration flow into the sound, and in turn, allowing the sound to inspire or correct us...
Learning to relax at the piano
is embarking on an adventurous journey to oneself...
and experiencing the interplay between movement and sound in ever-deeper resonances...
