From his nest on the Upper West Side of Manhattan, legendary pedagogue Seymour Bernstein is joined by tonebase Head of Piano Ben Laude for an interview at his faithful Steinway.
Bernstein shares his thoughts on the role of teachers in a student’s personal journey with music and offers simple but powerful insights into natural, effortless use of the arm in piano playing.
In the closing minutes the interview transforms, and Seymour offers Ben a jewel-like lesson on Chopin’s intoxicating First Nocturne on how to unify musical and physical gesture into one.
