Hands according to composers

Idea explanation:
Chopin: mixer because he reminds me of one sometimes. Example. Scriabin: he has written a lot of pieces for the left hand alone and he injured the right hand. Rachmaninoff: He had really big hands. Really big. Liszt: he sometimes reaches notes at the other side of the piano. Ravel: he has delicate, water hands and very often the left and right hand play on top of each other. Beethoven: he is powerful and this is also a reference to the hammerklavier Satie: his touch is very gentle and it sounds like he is playing with gloves. Boulez: Just to give you an idea. Cage: the 'no hands' is a joke for 4'33'' and the objects on the keyboard are a reference to his prepared pianos. Feldman: most of his compositions use just a few notes. Mozart: Rolling pins because of all the scales. Schubert: A lot of his pieces have very articulated right hand passages that go back and forth like a wheel and really easy left hand ones. Bach: robot hands because he was so structured and calculating in his pieces. (Side note: amazing book) Debussy: really soft touch, just like feathers. Glass: Pendulum and metronome because of his style that led him to be very technical, a bit like Bach, but it's more complicated than that. Bartok: drum beaters because of the power of some of his compositions.

Elle m'a dit d'aller siffler là-haut sur la colline De l'attendre avec un petit bouquet d'églantines J'ai cueilli des fleurs et j'ai sifflé tant que j'ai pu J'ai attendu, attendu, elle n'est jamais venue.
