The
Taubman Approach:
`"A
straightforward yet subtle approach to piano technique
that
provides all of the instrumental tools the pianist needs to express
his or her artistic vision." |
| Please Note: Many people exposed to the Taubman Approach have become excited by its possibilities and present themselves as Taubman teachers. They sometimes use the Taubman name in their biographical information and in the promotion of their workshops. While some may be gifted musicians, their results are predictably poor when they try to implement Taubman work without being thoroughly trained. In some cases, the results have been detrimental to the students. Occasionally, teachers with this type of limited background combine Taubman concepts with other pedagogical approaches and different types of body work. These may bear a superficial resemblance to Taubman work, but they are not recommended by the Taubman Institute, because they fundamentally alter the nature of the Taubman Approach. The pedagogy of the Taubman Approach is highly specialized. Currently, successful instructors have rigorous, on-going training in order to be able to diagnose and solve problems effectively. The Institute will be happy to recommend qualified teachers or clinicians, as well as to offer an assessment of anyone who claims to be teaching the Taubman Approach. |
