verb. If you redouble your efforts, you try much harder to achieve something. If something redoubles, it increases in volume or intensity.

While the right pedal sustains all the notes on a piano, the sostenuto, in essence, holds down selective notes you wish to sustain. When it is depressed, the last note played continues to sound while all the other notes are damped.

Sost. Ped Each pedal is marked slightly differently, but the principle is the same: Sustain (damper) pedal: Down = “Ped.” Up = “✱” Sostenuto pedal: Down = “Sost. Ped.” Up = “✱”

While the right pedal sustains all the notes on a piano, the sostenuto, in essence, holds down selective notes you wish to sustain. When it is depressed, the last note played continues to sound while all the other notes are damped.

Whereas the sustain pedal on the right hand side of the pedal row on a piano sustains the notes of a piano. It sustains every note you play once pressed, merging them together. A sostenuto pedal makes the first notes played sustain and everything else plays without sustaining them.
