Description: Norman Krieger, a Professor of Keyboard Studies at USC's Thornton School, discusses breathing and physicality as key factors in playing music with good musicality – even for piano players and other non-wind musicians. He also speaks about his own training in the Russian tradition of building skill-sets before approaching a repertoire, and contrasts that with musicians who use repertoire as a means of building musical skills.
