5. The "Sole" of the Piano | The Story of Pedaling, from the Industrial Revolution to the Digital Age

Pianists spend a lot of time thinking about their feet. In this episode, we will too. Join us as we explore the history of pedaling, from their earliest, and often bizarre, incarnations, to their modern form. With over 15 tonebase artists, we'll discover why so many pianists consider pedaling the "soul," or "sole" (hehe) of the piano. Featuring Garrick Ohlsson, Jerome Lowenthal, Gwendolyn Mok, Anne-Marie McDermott, Simone Dinnerstein, Sara Davis Buechner, Frederic Chiu, Gary Graffman, and others.
