How can we bring comprehensiveness to pianistic education or training so that teachers, students, and musician-performers feel safer playing with more performative authority? Here is the problem-question or key-question that guided this work. Furthermore, we base our study on the analytical-descriptive method based on the Literature Review. In this scientific article, we will comment on the different pedagogical-piano approaches, to mention the main ones: school of fingers; anatomical-physiological school and psychomotor school. We have a plenty of currents that conveyed new trends, theories, and ideas about various topics pertinent to piano practice, namely: piano movements, technical exercises, use of the pedal, articulation of the fingers, application of the weight of the arm, touch etc.
