| Abstract | This book describes Isabelle Vengerova, the passionate, dedicated, colorful, mercurial genius who emerged as one of the most outstanding piano teachers of the 20th century. Vengerova's superlative musicianship combined with her ability to impart this rare quality to others is a primary focus of this volume. Beyond portraying these attributes, this book reveals how we as musicians can apply her invaluable principles to our own playing and teaching. |
