I should say visual observation. I just think a player with expression =
pedal experience may be in a better position to listen to the =
differences but this not to say that a non playing listener can't hear =
the difference. So listen anyway it'll grow on ya. As far as "benefits" =
go it is for the greater expression of the music and therefore benefits =
everyone.  Chris

  I am not a piano player, so I can't try it, to hear a difference. But =
