In this collection of academic essays, award-winning pianist and music professor Yaokun Yang shares her carefully compiled analyses of classical music and aesthetics during several different periods, focusing particularly on the aspect of piano performance practice.

The pieces she studies include Beethoven's piano sonatas, an advanced piano teaching series, the development of opera in different areas, Bach's Brandenburg concertos, Haydn's piano sonatas, the Bach-Busoni Chaconne, Brahms's Intermezzo, Olivier Messiaen's Vingt regards sur l'enfant-Jésus, Prokofiev's piano sonatas, Webern's Six Pieces for Large Orchestra, and Schumann's Piano Concerto.
