Hello beautiful music teachers! Today, we'll discuss introducing sostenuto and una corda pedals to piano students with special guest Susan Staples Bell.
Students are naturally very curious about what these pedals do.
Still, it can be tricky to find pieces at beginner and intermediate levels (or in general) that give teachers ample opportunity to explore using them.
So, what is the best way to teach these pedals to various piano students at differing levels?
In today's Vibrant Music Teacher chat, we dive deep into how to get students engaged in music composition and play through Susan's amazing compositions in the latest Concept Collection.
