Foot-pumping is also called pianolizing, and Wodehouse, as pianolist adds expression to all these renditions. This she achieves in real time (as the roll unfurled over the tracker bar) through varied foot-pumping and the manipulation of the levers and buttons on which her hands rest below the keys.
