No new posts BOOK, DVD, A STUDY GUIDE, DVD DEMO, CD's
THE CRAFT OF PIANO PLAYING, published as a book by Scarecrow Press in 2003 and released on DVD in 2006 by Maple Grove Music Productions, has been hailed as the most detailed and intensive study of piano technique since Otto Ortmann. It presents a series of exercises designed to free our hands (and minds) from some of the thornier problems in classical piano technique. Have you read the book? Seen the DVD? The 9-minute online demo? What are your thoughts about it? We want to hear from you. The discussion that develops here will feed Alan Fraser's ongoing research that will eventually lead to further volumes on piano playing. And have you listened to the CD's of Alan Fraser? Kemal Gekich? Misha Datsich? Ratimir Martinovic? What do you think of this style of playing and how it relates to Craft of Piano method?

No new posts STUDENT EVALUATION VIDEO DISCUSSION GROUP
Much can be learned as well from the videos of 'us mere mortals,' pianists who love to play but who have not yet reached the Olympian Heights that the greatest have scaled. Feel free to submit a URL to your own video for comment and analysis by our forum members as well as Alan Fraser himself. We hope that these threads will become one of the most fruitful means of investigating just how the potent ideas of Craft of Piano method apply in practice.
