. . . a great pianist
must first of all be a great
technician; but technique, which constitutes only a part of the art of
the pianist, does not lie merely in fingers and wrists or in strength and
endurance. Technique in the truer sense has its seat in the brain, and
it is composed of geometry—an estimation of distance—and
wise co-ordination. . . .
Ferruccio Busoni
