Status Updates From Basic Principles in Pianofo...

This little book is the best one written for piano teachers. I have read a few and this tiny work covers more important matters than the lengthy volumes. If you are a piano teaching, read this!

Lhevinne: "Music is painted upon a canvas of silence."

Mozart: "The music is not in the notes, but in the silence between."

Having piano lessons from one of the best pianists the Moscow Conservatory delivered, I recognise all the important principles on how to play beautiful. Lhevinne however was one of the first to write them down, in a beautiful strict but lovingly prose. I loved every page of this charming booklet.
