About this lesson
Why we listen to harmony, and how to sense harmonic colour in the score.
Volume II expands the two core elements of tone production from Volume I—sound imagination and intonation—into new expressive dimensions. Harmony comes first: attentive listening to harmonic colour—supported by sound imagination and refined intonation—shapes the quality of touch and tone, guiding the fingertips toward a more nuanced, communicative sound.
What this lesson covers
- Sensing and imagining harmonic colour
- Integrating harmony into sound texture
