Russian technique is quite different, frankly. First of all, we do not strike the keys and produce such a unnecessarily bright intonation. Especially in Romantic music.. We caress the keys,as it were, press them not hits them and slight draw fingers back, as if petting a cat. Also Russian technique requires less curvature of fingers
A question: the circular motion comes seems to ripple out counter-clockwise on the right hand-does that imply it a mirror movement (i.e. clockwise) on the left hand? Or should the left hand be counter-clockwise too?
@@Khaitoulthank you Dayvid. I am just beginning to learn and my piano teacher is teaching me Russian technique. I’m amazed that already the sounds I’m producing, though simple, actually already sound “nice”-and it’s down to this minute focus on the way of striking the keys in a circular motion
It’s not. The sound you want for modern pop is very different and different motions must be used. Unless you want to end up sounding like a classical pianist’s attempt at pop.
I think pop is so broad there are many ways it can be played and techniques that can be used. I don’t understand why you seem to imply with your comment that (I presume) this technique can only be used for slow and/or legato music and not also for Gast and/or staccato music. Why not?
@@andrewbarrett1537 I used to think like you until I started playing both. There are just some things that make you sound “classical”. And it’s just not the notes. The technique is also part. And you might notice this a lot more if you are an ardent classical piano listener and you hear someone who plays a lot of pop music attempt to play a classical piece. You would tell that though he’s playing the music, it sounds more like a pop piano than a classical piece. This is something we can only tell by ear. In theory, all piano techniques should give you access to every style of music. But in reality, you will simply sound a certain way and it will be almost impossible for you to sound in the other way if you don’t understand how they are creating the sound they are producing from the instrument.
I think this applies to fast, slow, soft and loud passages in order to make the sound “sinks” deeply? I’m not sure but my teacher have been telling me I must use muscles from the back in all piano playing situations to make the sound sings deeply and not resulting in a loud and flat sound, correct me if I’m wrong
Best explanation yet of piano relaxation!
Awesome technique. And it looks cool too.
Thank you so much !!! this is so helpful ! 😍😍🥰🥰🥰

Real talent
Very interesting. Could you make a video about the correct movement of the fingers? Thanks.
What did you play there it was nice

I like it 😊

Yes, simply mirroring

so cute :)
Interesting. Audio low
This is not compatible when playing chords, isn't it? I mean, modern pop music.
The gravity technique of relaxation at the piano is applicable to any music, whether classical, pop, jazz, etc.

I wrote “fast” but autocorrect made it into “Gast”.

I dont think you must rotate your elbow too, only your wrist then your front arm
When you first learn the gravity/weight technique, you exaggerate and then ultimately it can become invisible.

I don't see how it changes the sound
it prolongs and becomes vivid
Since the piano is essentially a percussion instrument, it changes the attack
