Pianistin kysymys soiton hallinnasta. Lectio praecursoria.

Abstract

The demonstration of proficiency for my doctoral degree consisted of five concerts of piano music by Sergei Rachmaninoff and a thesis focusing on questions of control in playing Rachmaninoff’s Moment musical Op. 16 No. 2 E-flat minor. The thesis suggests a way in which Rachmaninoff may have finger pedalled his piano compositions. It also includes exercises for pianists’ practical use.
