These exercises are wonderful not only for professional pianists, but for learners of any level. Without these exercises I would not be at the level I am at today. They increased my ability tenfold to play cleaner trills, sustained playing of octaves and large cords, and a great many of the more difficult cadenzas that appear in many beautiful pieces. This is a wonderful book to use with young students and get them started right away on improving their technique.
This is a piano book full of fun exercises. They strengthen your fingers and arms and make you more agile in your piano playing. This was one of my favorite piano books when I was taking piano lessons. I loved going up and down the keys in different rhythms. I'm getting it again in hopes of starting to play once more.
