    It sounds like I have the same technique as Krummhorn and never look at my feet.

    I went to an organ recital a couple of weeks ago. One of the local students studying at university arranged it as a fundraiser for his studies. I was amased that when playing he (and his old teacher) spent as much time looking at their feet as reading the music, and they had their knees together!

    I'm not *quite* there with not looking down at the pedals yet, but certainly getting better. The fact that I play on 3 different organs and each pedal board is different adds to the confusion (or should that be enjoyment?).

    Hopefully before long I'll be pedalling without looking ... at least that's what I'm working towards!!!
