In What Ways Can Pianists Decode Expressive Markings to Bring Music to Life?

Understanding Expressive Markings in Piano Music

Reading piano music can sometimes feel really confusing because of a few reasons:

  • Lots of Markings: There are many symbols for volume, the way notes are played, and other tips. This can make it hard to know what to do.

  • Different Feelings: Everyone has their own feelings when they play music. This can make it tricky to play it in a way that makes sense together.

To make it easier, here are some tips:

  • Break It Down: Take the music one part at a time. Focus on just a few of the markings so it’s not so overwhelming.

  • Listen and Imitate: Find recordings of other people playing. This can help you see how they express the music and give you some ideas for your own playing.
