Musicality 5/7 Supporting the Melodic Line
Today’s video is about the support of the melodic line with dynamics. In some way, it can be compared to rhymes in poetry.
If the melody moves up, you should play louder. If the melody goes down, you should play softer. Of course this is not always the case. Let's discuss in this video.

Musicality 4/7 - Soft Phrase Endings
Just as with speech, punctuation and emphasis will undeniably dramatically change your performance.
Three things are important to learn about phrasing:
1. Train your ear by listening to a lot of recordings, also to vocal music.
2. Be careful about indications in the score (crescendo, diminuendo, try to see the phrases in the score before playing them)
3. Use the right technique of playing soft endings.
