staccato.<\/strong> On the score the composer will indicate the phrasing to be reproduced by distinctive signs. Of course, the two independent hands must be able to produce two different phrasings at the same time. <\/p>\n\nThe nuances :<\/h3>\n\n Dynamics indicate the relative intensity for playing a note or a group of notes. Les deux mains ind\u00e9pendantes devront \u00eatre capables de jouer avec une intensit\u00e9 diff\u00e9rente au m\u00eame moment. The main nuance indications are from weakest to strongest, pianissimo, piano, forte, fortissimo. <\/p>\n\n
Rhythm :<\/h3>\n\n Rhythm is the organization of musical events in time. Iit determines the duration of the notes and the moment at which they should be heard. The two independent hands must be able to press keys at different times without influencing each other. Among the main figures of rhythm, from the longest to the shortest, exist the whole note, the half note, the quarter note, the eighth note and the sixteenth note.<\/p>\n\n

This exercise using the “very famous Brother Jacques” will require good concentration. It will be necessary to rehearse the two separate hands beforehand before playing them together.<\/p>\n\n<\/video>Canon exercise tutorial for independence of the hands slow speed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/video>Tutorial cannon exercise for independence of the hands normal speed<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>\n\n
