I wonder if piano majors are taught anything about piano maintenance and care... Alas, very few, if any, know or are taught the slightest bit about their instrument. I was a performance major at Indiana and have studied in Juilliard's Night Division so I know neither of them even offer anything. But read what Alfred Brendel says in his book, Alfred Brendel on Music: Collected Essays. His point, though stated far more eloquently, is that pianists should become better technicians AND that technicians should become better pianists. Ergo, a bridge to better communication, to better performances and to better music. Amen.
