Russian Piano Technique

In a simplified, step-by-step process, Mr Chatterji’s methodology, which was honed during his time as a scholarship student at the Russian Conservatoire, is unveiled. He demonstrates the anatomical, choreographical and emotive movements of the performer as he immerses his body and soul into the piano. The idea is to transform the otherwise percussive piano into something more like a vocal or string instrument, resonating in an exquisite, frictionless fluidity. By applying this to customised exercises, young learners find they have the speed and power to progress much faster than would be possible in conventional lessons.

The inclining of the body in a posture of total surrender into the piano also creates an all-absorbing intense physical intimacy, stirring the poetic imagination of the pianist and empowering him to breathe life into the piano, as if it had a soul of its own. The pianist and the piano become one and it is this fusion that inspires the artist to discover himself, resulting in unprecedented possibilities of uninhibited expression.

This methodology has been praised by musical educationists of many countries, from US politicians, to renowned conductors like Maestro Zubin Mehta and world famous institutions like Russia’s Bolshoi Theatre. PM Music Academy invites you to enroll in this course and experience the magic of the method for yourself. Your passion and practice will enable you, whether you are 10, 20, 30 or even 40 years old, to perform live and wow an audience in just nine months. The method has proven itself many times over. Come and prove yourself and find out just how much you can achieve!
