We had the privilege of interviewing Dr. Rae de Lisle from New Zealand 🇳🇿 for this season's 8th episode. Dr. de Lisle is a world-class piano pedagogue who has produced many exceptional piano students of major competition winners internationally throughout her outstanding teaching career.
Dr. de Lisle’s groundbreaking Ph.D. research into focal dystonia has gained international recognition and led to presentations and keynote speeches worldwide. Her experience in teaching students from the very beginning to international competition winners, as well as her studies with renowned pedagogues Brigitte Wild (student of Claudio Arrau), Cyril Smith (student of Rachmaninoff), and Maria Curcio (student of Artur Schnabel), gives her a unique perspective on the development of injury-preventative piano technique at every level, from the beginner to the advanced pianist.
In this episode, Dr. de Lisle shares the synopsis of her extensive research on focal dystonia, her philosophy of modern piano technique, and more. She also gives us a sneak peak of her latest publication, "Fit 4 Piano," exclusive for our audience!
