The Pianist's Guide to Pedaling

Pedaling--for color, for sonority, for sustaining certain tones--is an art, but one that must be based on historical considerations and on an understanding of the composer's intent. In The Pianist's Guide to Pedaling, Joseph Banowetz and four distinguished contributors present a comprehensive view of the subject. Here are practical suggestions and musicological insights pertaining to the performance of keyboard music from the eighteenth to the twentieth century.

Joseph Banowetz is Professor of Piano at the University of North Texas and an international concert artist.
