What is the pianistic tone?When I arrived in England, I started hearing about this term: "tone". The word was used to talk about different things, all grouped and named the same. The concept of "tone" covered elements like the duration of each type of articulation, the quality of the attacks, the release of the keys and the relation of intensity between one note and its surrounding ones. I was really interested in this concept as it really brought my attention to the phenomenon that each note represents as a single musical event that is a part of a more complex performance challenge. The aesthetical power we have to influence the quality of a piece by operating on each one of its notes goes beyond the notes themselves. The way we approach each note-attack will affect the speed of our performance, its character and most importantly, our way of understanding the whole structure that supports our musical performance.
