✨🌟Daily Tribe Gathering🌟✨ expressiveness

Hi Tribers! In today’s quickie theory drop I wanted to share my personal favorite thing to prioritize when I play, teach, learn or listen music!

🌟Music is an international language that everyone understands and it speaks directly to your soul!

The expressiveness of your playing is called DYNAMICS.

🌟

To me, this is the most important (and my favorite!!! As I mentioned above) thing when it comes to playing, teaching or/and learning music.

❤️Dynamics express to the musician how loud to play the music. We can think of dynamics as a kind of scale, with many intermediate steps between very loud and very soft. The names of these steps all use either forte or piano, meaning loud and soft… but there are many many many more! Will go over those later.

Try pressing a key to produce softer sound and then try the same key with louder sound.

Try playing an entire song or an entire part of a song - soft. Then loud! Softer sounds are produced by pressing the keys slower down and louder - by pressing the keys faster - all the way down, with more weight.

See if you can consciously control the volume within your song.

😉This is way harder to feel on a digital keyboard than on an acoustic piano for sure! Sorry… 😞

🤷‍♀️ I never thought of that, I just make sure I press the correct key!

❤️ I love playing around with dynamics, brings soul into my playing and it’s more interesting for me and others that listen to me

😅 I do love playing w the volume of the steroid system and drive people around me nuts!! Not on a piano tho

I don’t understand how to change the volume. Do you mean from the volume knob?? 🤔
