[pianotech] Proper use of the una corde pedal/soft pedal

[Dale Erwin]

 SO I worked for a Russian pianist the other weekend.  Very talented. And he had real specific request for soft pedal voicing.  I learned some things but I still haven't figured out how to communicate with Russian pianist.  May be its me?  Isaac,help me  out.
 SO ,this is a quiz and a question. What voicing techniques do you all employ to voice for the shift?
    What techniques do you all use to voice the pianist:) I don't look like a plumber or a farmer(no offense meant) I ,mean I was there to elevate the level of his performance and all but ...well I just don't think he saw it that way.
  I love Russian pianist, they play all the big music and, all the way to the bottom of the keys. But keyboard side manner is another thing.
  Perhaps he had P.S.
  Dale
