In this session, our host turned speaker, David Anderson, does a deep dive into the topic of voicing. When you’re voicing a hammer, you’re making it sound deeper, fatter and clearer - which is a product of hearing lower partials clearer. He explains all this in the context of partial undertones.
David lets us in on the intricacies of strike point voicing techniques which he has personally used for over 15 years to give a piano what he calls the “golden tone”. He achieves this through attention and feel based voicing - and walks us through the entire process.
So if you are wondering how to get a tone that is sweet and amber, warm and liquid at low volume - this class is for you. Tune in to hear from a deep expert in the field of voicing.
