An etude is the pianist's laboratory. An etude is about thinking, not about speed. Speed is the result. A real etude teaches you to think with your hands. An etude is about control. An etude is about the task. An etude is about freedom. Work in small fragments. Do not chase speed - look for ease. How do we choose an etude? What is the strategy? An etude is a remedy, not a goal. One etude - one main task. Look at the texture, not at the title. An etude should be linked to the repertoire.

Dynamics are not about loudness. Dynamics are about a way of thinking in music. If we remove dynamics from music, what do we lose. What the voice does when we speak. Dynamics as emotional grammar; they cannot be separated from intonation. Psychological and mental impact. Dynamics - goal - resources - choice of means - audible result. The key thing is meaning.

The philosophy of Baroque music and the four disciplines it consisted of. The medieval and Renaissance tradition of the quadrivium, the group of four. The architecture of musical thought. Terraced dynamics. Order of the world - order of music - musical speech - affect - expressiveness. The main features of affect. Intonation, accent, pause, articulation, tempo, direction of the phrase, contrast. Articulation instead of dynamic contrasts.

From Baroque dynamics to Classical dynamics. Haydn: dynamics as a rhetorical gesture, as movement. The symphony orchestra. Mozart: dynamics as plasticity and breathing. Opera and voice as speech, voice and breath. Beethoven: dynamics as dramaturgy. Symphony plus dramaturgy. Younger age: image - ear - movement - sign. Teenager: thought - action - dynamic decision.

With the Impressionists dynamics work inside the texture. How to teach a student to hear dynamics not as the signs p, f, crescendo, but as a change of sound colour. Dynamics must have an image.

What abstract thinking in music is. The main pedagogical idea. You cannot teach a student to hear what the teacher has not yet heard. Dynamics as a way of organizing musical thought and developing the ear and abstract thinking. Computerization and the broadening of our idea of sound. Dynamics as a feature of modern life. Speed is not the only manifestation of being dynamic. A paradox: the more dynamic life is, the more important silence becomes.

Where learning dynamics begins. What the main principles of the methodology are. How to explain dynamics to a student in practice. How to take the student's individuality into account. The goal of the methodology of teaching dynamics. Working with the score using the eyes. A student with mainly emotional perception. A student with an analytical cast of mind. Learning dynamics is a sequential process where each stage rests on the previous one and prepares the next. Where and how touch, the contact with the key, is born.
