In mm.16 on the final beat, there is a grace note leading into mm.17. If you wanted to start a new (sudden) dynamic of the mm.17 phrase, lets say going to f, would you notate the f underneath the grace note, or would you notate the f on the first beat of mm.17 ? If the f is placed in mm.17, then would the performer look ahead prior to playing the mm.16 grace note, in order to play the grace note with louder dynamic? Or in this case, would you choose to use a different type of grace note notation (the one that is notated just before the same bar) and place that notation in mm.17 so that the dynamic would cover the grace note along with the entire phrase? (Sure is easy to make music complex when digging into the fine details)

12:38 The dynamics of your -So- certainly shook me from my reverie brought on by that dreamy ending :-)
This was an incredibly helpful expose on Dynamics... I just watched your tension and release lesson and was really hankering for a deeper dive.
An off topic lesson that I took home from this video was the incredible patience and portent that you played that piece with. I need to learn how to stop rushing things.

I already said this but will say again. You are the best online music teacher on you tube because you tick all these elements: best teaching methods, best way of delivering the content, best content, very clear paced explanation and excellent complement to study the books published by Royal Schools of Music in the UK. Ah, and forgot to say, you have a great speech, oratory skills ...

I have been playing guitar and various instruments for years but have no classical training what so ever, however your lesson has struck a chord (pun unintended) as I have been working on pieces using exactly the dynamics you suggest. Like you say I find recording and playing back very useful. Many thanks.

This is a vital session - THANK YOU for speaking over the music - it shines light on what you say, and that all of this is a matter of degree and caring evaluation. Thank you so much.

Very good video. I learned how to interpret what dynamics should be used when it is not indicated very often by the composer throughout the score.
