4 points so a draw and a win <| sep |> Those are variant spellings of the same name . They ' re supposed to be pronounced the same . <| sep |> There are stages ? <| sep |> Does it sound harsh by itself or is it how its timing and dynamics interact in relation to the notes that come before and after ? Fluid arm motion allows gradations between multiple tones versus something that is abrupt . By balance on escapement , I mean physical awareness of the point of sound at all times rather than literally balancing on it . It ' s a sort of proprioceptive awareness that allows you to time the followthrough and release between successive tones in relation to the escapement point of multiple tones . It ' s more of a dynamic balance like in treading water . I don ' t mean at all that you don ' t follow through to the keybed for support , especially for held tones . Trying to the same sort of timing with relation to the key bed doesn ' t produce the same results at all because it comes after you are able to affect the speed of that key .
