Excellent clear and informative lesson
Such a great help. Have been playing for years on the organ but there is always more to learn. Thank you for the advice!
Thank you very much for these valuable informations. I am sure, it will help me a lot.
Dr Isabelle Demers is one of the most relaxed performers I have ever seen or heard! I have sponsored three times at my church, and have heard her in many other venues over the years, and she has as much energy at the end of her concerts as she does at the beginning! As anyone who really knows her, she indeed does what she "preaches"!! Every organist should watch this series with her!
I have heard many presentations on pedaling over the years, this is by far the most helpful I have ever heard. I cant wait to get home and try out some of these amazing tips
I've heard this lady in concert a couple of times, and now I can see that she is also a superb teacher.
I occasionally play the organ in our church but can't play the pedals. To say that this video is inspirational is an understatement. Excellent, clear, non 25:25 sense advice and no waffle. Thank you for giving your time and expertise.
Fabulously detailed and beautifully taught with clear illustrative examples. Bravo!
This is very helpful. Thanks
Nice one
Your pedal work is incredible awesome amazing
Very enjoyable to watch
She's good!
2:20 ❤
From the onset (0:35) I don't understand how there can be a "rule of thumb about pedal technique" !?! Does Pr Demers have opposable toes? 😉
No, the rule of toe applies to manual technique.
That is amazing,how can I get these shoes
Ugh. 20 minutes in and nothing is said except chords on the pedal which is so far beyond the beginning level. Awful. She spends the entire time telling people what NOT to do. And now she's talking about repeated notes. Again, where is the real instruction on pedal technique? This isn't instruction. It's just tips on repeated notes and double pedal chords. Sorry to say, she is not a good reacher. She just started in with chords for the THIRD time. God awful teacher. Chords are entirely rare. Why does she call this a FIRST lesson on pedaling? Now she's talking about chromatic scales before she ever taught a single thing about basic technique such as whether we play on the inner side or the outer side of the foot. Disaster. Total waste.
