KEYBOARD MUSICIANSHIP: "Developing a methodology through musical repertoire"
The main objective of this research is to investigate how music repertoire can be used as a starting point for developing and broadening keyboard musicianship skills. My assumption is that such an approach would enable the musician to more actively and fluently ‘speak’ the musical language, and to get a more complete understanding and awareness of music itself , expanding flexibility and creativity in music making. Taking the already existing literature and the most recent discoveries and insights about this topic as a starting point, I aim to develop a keyboard methodology, intended for Piano Bachelor and Master students, but with a long-term perspective to expand the method to all instruments and ensembles in chamber music contexts.
