Over at The Well-Balanced Pianist website, Dr. Tereasa Dybvig has some wonderful before-and-after pictures of students demonstrating posture at the piano. Let me tell you, a picture truly tells a thousand words! I’ve never before seen such a clear demonstration of the effects of incorrect posture. Bench height, distance from the piano, and having feet flat on the ground really do matter. Take a look! (Scroll down about halfway to get to the pictures.)
