Marshall Academy

On Friday, February 23, the presentation of the Move Your Finger on the piano took place at the Alicia de Larrocha Auditorium Room of the Marshall Academy in Barcelona. Andoni Elías accompanied by Marta Zabaleta made the presentation of the new pedagogical method for piano teachers.

After the talk there was a demonstration of the pieces on the piano that belonged to Frederic Mompou. The teachers had the opportunity to read the pieces of Move Your Fingers on the piano while listening to them and were amazed by the new rhythms and harmonies.

The Marshall Academy was founded in 1901 by the composer and pianist Enric Granados. After his death, he was succeeded as director of the academy by his disciple Frank Marshall, teacher of the great pianist Alicia de Larrocha, who succeeded him as director, and in her later years, she left the academy in the hands of her student and current director, the pianist Marta Zabaleta
