. . . Hello everyone!

. . . .The second video on piano technique, regarding anatomy, was a very interesting and exciting journey that I believe created a bit of amazement in everyone upon learning and understanding that the fingers are only the

"final point" of the Pianist.

I have always been curious about why each finger of our hands has a different length from the others.

I was hoping to find an answer to this question in the video on anatomy . . . but that was not the case!

Is there anyone who can "reveal to me" this particular design of our hands?

I RENEW MY THANKS TO PAOLO AND SIMONE FOR THEIR STRONG COMMITMENT IN DISSEMINATING

KNOWLEDGE ABOUT THE MAGICAL WORLD OF THE PIANO.

I TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO ALSO THANK GIULIA GRECO BECAUSE, IN ADDITION TO BEING PREPARED ON SUCH A DIFFICULT AND IMPORTANT SUBJECT, SHE WAS ALSO GRACIOUS AND LOVELY.

Happy Sunday to all

Perhaps Giulia herself, with her Science, can answer this question for us. Personally, I believe that, anthropologically, the hand developed and evolved to meet the various needs of man (a banal thought). If we truly were quadrumans, now we have only two limbs... but more "refined" ones. Perhaps we no longer climb trees... and instead.......we know how to play the piano. Better this way! Better this way? Who knows

It is said that the monkey descended from the trees and became Man.

In Africa, they tell this little story: "Do you know why in the evening monkeys climb back up into the trees? Because they are afraid of becoming Men again"

always thanks to Paolo and Simone.... and to my companions!!!!!!!!! It would also be interesting to know the familiarity of musical "genius" and in particular investigations into the physiological and anatomical characteristics of the brain centers responsible for this particular "predisposition" which our speakers are surely endowed with... a hug Assia

I had opened a discussion in the past that might interest you

http://www.pianoconcerto.it/forum/index.php?/topic/2337-la-musica-e-il-cervello

Then the discussion shifted, or rather concentrated, on just one part of the discourse...
