Exploring piano extended techniques
Channel: José Luis Amores
Date: 2023-06-18

Over the last years, I have been using several piano extended techniques I want to show you. These techniques make the piano sound blend very well with electronic music, in my opinion. I think using these techniques is a lot of fun and they are easy to try. You get new sounds and this sometimes can inspire you to make new music. So give it a try and let me a comment with your thoughts and experiences!
