This is a corrected LINK to my published review of the material http://mtac.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/CMT2012FallTalesMusicalJourney_preview-article1.pdf
This article was published in the California Music Teacher Magazine of the MTAC. It has internal links to you tube demonstrations of piano lessons. Some are those of Irina Gorin. Others are examples of my work with a 4-year old student.
A very fine and well annotated review of Irina Gorin's book. Based on the excerpt below, you are as excellent a writer as you are a piano teacher virtuoso.
"In essence, she teaches a student to think of the piano
like a bowl of jello, to avoid a “fingers down, superficial, skimming the surface” approach to the keys. The imagery promotes a “slower” if not denser penetration, preventing a pokey, percussive attack."
