piano - How long do you hold a fermata? - Music: Practice

WEBIt depends on the piano, but since it is not a sustained instrument, such as winds or strings, the sound will die away. The only thing you can act on is the timing, which brings me to a point which seems greatly overlooked in the other answers, that is of the musicality, or intention of the fermata.
