What effect does pressing the left hand pedal on the piano have?
The left hand pedal on a piano is the soft pedal, it softens the sound (makes it quieter) by pressing the dampers (pads that rest against the strings to stop the sound from ringing) harder against the strings.

The middle pedal is called a "Sostenuto Pedal" and it removes the dampers from the only the notes that are played when the pedal is depressed, therefore sustaining some and not others.
