24.3Play melody louder than accompaniment
This sounds elementary, but it's one of the hardest technical skills.
RH may be playing:
- melody with finger 5,
- inner harmony with fingers 1–3.
You want:
melody = projected
inner voices = softer
This is called voicing in the performance sense.
Not chord voicing—the other meaning of voicing.
