One of the most neglected resources in piano pedagogy, and one that plays a very important role in piano teaching, is the use of the damper pedal. In fact, we have found that at higher levels of study students not only fail achieve the requisite autonomy, but also use it incorrectly. This happens due to a lack of printed resources, theoretical as well as practical, that greatly hinder teaching of this aspect. This study attempts to look into methodologies of teachers at conservatories and schools in the Canary Islands along with the common problems generally found among students in elementary education, high schools, and professional studies.
