The Piano Teacher ((LINK))



Erika Kohut is a piano professor in her late 30s at a Vienna music conservatory who resides in an apartment with her domineering elderly mother. Her late father had been a longstanding resident in a psychiatric asylum. Despite Erika's aloof and assured façade, she is a woman whose sexual repression and loneliness is manifested in her paraphilia, including voyeurism, sadomasochistic fetishes, and self-mutilation.




The Piano Teacher



At a recital hosted by the Blonskij couple, Erika meets Walter Klemmer, a young aspiring engineer who also plays piano, and who expresses admiration of her talent for classical music. The two share an appreciation for composers Robert Schumann and Franz Schubert, and he attempts to apply to the conservatory to be her pupil. His audition impresses the other professors, but Erika, though visibly moved by his playing, votes against him; she cites his divergent interpretation of Schubert's Andantino, and questions his motivations. Despite this, Walter is admitted as Erika's pupil. Meanwhile, another pupil, Anna Schober, struggles with anxiety while pushed by her own ambitious mother. However, when Erika witnesses Anna and Walter socializing, she slips to an empty coatroom and smashes a glass, hiding the shards inside one of Anna's coat pockets. This cuts Anna's right hand, preventing her playing at the forthcoming jubilee concert.


For the scene in which Erika cuts herself in the bathtub, tubes and a pump were used for the false blood, which the props artist had to conceal from the camera under Huppert.[7] Huppert also wore a blood bag under her clothing for the self-stabbing scene, taken from the novel.[7] Benoît Magimel studied piano during filming to convincingly simulate his playing scenes at the end of production, while the music is playback.[7] Susanne Lothar performed in German, but her lines were dubbed over with French in co-production.[7]


(2001) A study of female sexuality and the dynamics of control, adapted by Haneke from a controversial 1983 novel by Elfriede Jelinek. Isabelle Huppert delivers an icy but quietly seething performance as Erika, a middle-aged piano professor at a Viennese conservatory who lives with her mother, in a claustrophobically codependent relationship. Severely repressed, she satisfies her masochistic urges only voyeuristically until she meets Walter (Benoît Magimel), a young student whose desire for Erika leads to a destructive infatuation that upsets the careful equilibrium of her life. A critical breakthrough for Haneke. Winner of the Grand Prix as well as dual acting awards for its stars at Cannes. DCP courtesy of Janus Films.


Michael Haneke explores the dynamics of power, control and gender dynamics in a relationship in his masterpiece, The Piano Teacher. Erika Kohut, a piano teacher in her 40s, lives with her domineering mother while her father is locked away in an insane asylum. Erika squirms under the thumb of her mother, vacillating between simpering little girl and an adult struggling for autonomy, the way some people might play to their captors to beg release. While her life at home lays the basic foundation for her psychology, it isn't until cocky young piano player Walter Klemmer manipulates his way into private lessons with Erika that the film veers into wildly compelling -- and unsettling -- territory.

The piano students of Mrs. K learned more than just Chopin and Mozart in her quaint little home in the suburbs. Now retired, Mrs. K decides to contact her former students to reminisce on the good old days. What she discovers, however, is disturbing.


When Karl Goldstein was a young child, he took piano lessons every Saturday morning with a family friend. She'd feed him breakfast, and Goldstein would get to check out her husband's stamp collection. Eventually, they'd get around to playing the piano.


But when Goldstein was 12, his teacher told his parents that he needed better instruction. So his mother took him to a music school in the Bronx, and enrolled him in classes with a teacher named Alice Shapiro. This new teacher was known for being tough, and she quickly lived up to that reputation.


This was nothing like his lighthearted Saturday mornings with his former teacher, and it wasn't long before Goldstein decided that he didn't want to take piano lessons anymore. He figured he'd pick up another instrument, or maybe just teach himself the piano.


"She became my mentor and my confidante. I went into music, went to Juilliard, became a musician, [and] became a piano teacher," Goldstein said. "And that's what I've been doing for the past 50 years. And I owe it all to that one precious moment with my unsung hero, Alice Shapiro."


New York Times bestselling author Robert K. Tanenbaum tells the terrifying and gripping story of Charles Yukl, a mild-mannered piano and voice teacher that killed and abused his students.Everybody has a dream. For aspiring actress Suzanne Reynolds, her dream ended in a gruesome encounter with eccentric New York artist Charles Yukl. Fooled by his choirboy looks, Reynolds had no idea the man who taught her the piano was a woman-hating recluse who spent his days lost in fantasies of perversion. As a result of the plea bargain for Suzannes brutal murder, Yukl soon gained his freedom due to a shocking series of legal errors -- and killed again. A riveting dramatization of two horrific crimes and their aftermath, The Piano Teacher brilliantly portrays a madman set on fulfilling his own sadistic and homicidal dreams...and the flawed justice system that gave him the opportunities to do so.


Great learning asks great questions, underpinned by great thinking. The brain is more receptive to remember answers to questions we ask than when information is delivered by the teacher. Over time, students should be asking themselves the same questions a teacher would.


This suited me fine, because I did not have to think too hard. Stephen would have none of this, for passive learning was not enough. Great teachers seldom give direct answers or immediate feedback before probing for deeper thought. Providing solutions before the student has had an opportunity to solve a problem constrains autonomy. Rather, good teachers hint, gradually increasing the content until the pupil works it out for themselves. Expressive disciplines like music require active participation, and teachers like Stephen enable students to question and to construct their own ideas. As I became more engaged in my own learning, my motivation levels skyrocketed.


Struggle is inherent in learning. This is the principle failing of the enthusiastic graduate teacher, so keen to impart as much as possible of their own knowledge that there is little real learning left for the student to do. Teaching and giving answers are not synonymous. Nor is learning and having the answers supplied. Studies confirm that when teacher talk dominates the learning environment, at best shallow learning results (Chi et al. 2001). What teachers choose not to say is essential. The best teachers tell their students almost nothing. They prompt and probe, drawing as much as possible from the student. Likewise, teachers who solve problems for students implicitly communicate to the student that they are incapable of solving it for themselves.


Working on the old-fashioned system, the clever teacher (deplorable paradox!) does almost more harm than the stupid one. For the clever schoolmaster makes things too easy for his pupils; he relieves them of the necessity of finding out things for themselves. By dint of brilliant teaching, he succeeds in almost eliminating the learning process. He knows how to fill his pupils with ready-made knowledge, which they inevitably forget (since it is not their knowledge and cost them nothing to acquire) as soon as the examination for which it was required is safely passed.


Not every piano teacher teach every age, so this is a crucial factor when choosing a teacher. Most people assume that anyone who plays piano can perceptibly adapt their techniques to accommodate children, young adults, or senior citizens. This is not entirely true, as every age requires a different set of knowledge and skills to be able to assist the students to learn.


The best way to determine if the piano teachers are highly qualified for your age level is to ask what their experiences are with age. Ask the age groups that they have taught. Have they only taught small children or high school students? Do they teach adults or senior citizens? If a piano teacher has a wide range of age experience then he will be the most qualified person to teach you.


Piano music styles are an extremely detailed category and it boils down to somewhat of a hierarchy. Classical music is an entirely different category, as with jazz and rhythm and blues. Therefore, if you are looking at learning to play classical music, then it is advisable that you find out if the piano teacher has a teaching background in classical music.


That said, you need to ensure that he has more than five years of experience in classical music. The same needs to be ascertain if you prefer to learn jazz. A piano teacher who has an extensive knowledge in jazz music is often able to teach you other music styles, for instance funk, blues, or rock.


The coronavirus pandemic of 2020 disrupted quite a few educational activities ranging from traditional classroom education to musical tutoring. While there has been a considerable increase in homeschooling and distance education enhanced by internet communications, music performance academies and personal tutoring sessions have been drastically reduced. Instrumental performance is one of those activities that are not well-suited to remote learning. Musical educators strongly believe in the aspect of fostering and transmitting knowledge in person. In the case of piano lessons, many have pivoted to remote tutoring via Skype and Zoom, but they are not definitely not the same. 041b061a72
