About this exposition

Metaphors play an important role in describing effectively the qualities of an emotional state due to the advantage of figurative language over literal language. Expressivity in music is substancially connected with communicating emotions among other factors. Therefore, the use of metaphors can be a powerful way of improving musical expressivity. This study focuses on developing expressivity in intermediate piano students. On the theoretical level it presents fields of expressivity and strategies including metaphors for empowering them and on the practical level, through the course of 4 piano lessons it experiments with those strategies and reflects on the findings.
