I just learned more in this video about the pedals than I did in 20 years of piano lessons including an Ivy League college where I earned a music composition degree. Thank you.

On a grand, the soft pedal does one other thing. The hammers usually have grooves where they hit the strings. When the soft pedal shifts them over, the softer part of the hammer - the part between the grooves- hits the strings, producing a much softer tone. This is qualitatively different from just hitting fewer strings, and a much more significant factor in the moderation of the tone.

I'm hungry and all I can hear is "Sauce to Noodle Peddle" Now I'll never forget what the pedals do!

Great description. They work so beautifully on a Bösendorfer. (I have their model 170). The sostenuto pedal on older grands is often out of order because it is so rarely used and so many people don’t know how to use it. It can be very tricky to get it to engage because of the critical timing between striking the notes and depressing the sostenuto pedal.

Best explanation!!

Thank you! I took piano for 6+ years and always wondered about the 2 pedals to the left of sustain. Now I finally know.

Really useful. It just came up on my feed. I have wondered for ages what the middle pedal did!

But what if the piano tells you to 'press any key to continue' ?

I don't play the piano, but I found this interesting.

I never thought of using the sostenuto and the damper at the same time. I'm self-taught, so I can only blame the teacher for that. Thanks for the video. You made me head right for my piano!

After the sustain pedal, the next most used pedal for today’s (and future’s) pianists would be the bluetooth pedal for turning the score pages on the iPad.

"The one in the middle is to separate the other two".__________Victor Borge

Right - The damper/sustain pedal. Left - The soft pedal/una corda. Middle - The sostenuto pedal. Thanks, Mr Sung.

Thank you for answering my question in an easy to understand fashion. The additional camera view of the piano also helped me fully understand the purpose of the three pedals.
