Piano Mastery Talks - Reading Together - Burnham


"I make a great distinction between the coloratura touch and the melody touch. The first is for rapid, brilliant passage work, sparkling, glittering, iridescent—what you will—but cold. It is made, as I said, with arched hand and raised finger action. Melody touch expresses warmth and feeling; is from the heart."
(page 90, Kindle Edition)

"Music should express color."
