Piano Mastery Talks - Reading Together - Agnes Morgan
"I give special preparatory exercises for pedal use. Placing the heel on the floor, and the forepart of the foot on the pedal, they learn to make one depression with every stroke of the metronome; when this can be done with ease, then two depressions to the beat, and so on."
(page 142, Kindle Edition)
"While necessary and important, the technical foundation is after all but a small part compared to the training for rhythmic sense, and for the knowledge of how to produce good and beautiful results in musical interpretation."
(page 143, Kindle Edition)

Hi Laura! I was hoping to get in contact with you, but I couldn't find your email address listed. I'm working on a blog post right now for piano parents, and I'd love to get a quote from you to include. If you're interested in helping, please shoot me an email at sstgeorge@takelessons.com so we can chat! :)
