Great for agility
This book is filled with exercises that help with agility and sight reading. It can be a bit boring, but is super useful.

Learning The Left Hand By Myself
It is like reading War & Peace and telling your friends, “I am still on the first four or so pages.”When did I buy this like a couple months back?My ring and pinky fingers are showing strength and vein.I thought some of the exercises were wrong, but I am persisting. The numbers fill in for a music teacher. I spend at least an hour per day, I struggle figuring it out only to come back the next day with ‘insight’ and it is getting easier. I have put the piano and workbook aside out of fatigue feeling tire if not frustration.Then, I come back and repeat prior exercises and the hard newer exercise. It is coming around a lot better.You cannot paint thinking canvases will have numbers on them. Same with the book. As soon as I get my fingering down, I look at the music following along much better. I surmise that next year will much easier.The book tells you to repeat the early exercises before you practice left with right hand. And, we should continue the basics for the left hand with the left & right hand exercises. The left & right exercises are easier each day. But, I had to return to the left hand exercises – especially the harder ones I skipped over.Point here is the exercises are getting easier. I anticipate they will make left hand playing easier with certain playing styles. All I have to do is stick with it, and my playing will come around like typing on my PC (typewriter) key board has been mastered since started back in High School.Is there a better book out there?I do not know.I am sticking with this book and will hope to see a new me a year from now.

It might be useful and helpful in the future.
I bought it because I saw that in the anime series version of the anime movie Piano Forest, some of the characters do finger exercises to play fast (allegro/presto) pieces like Chopin’s Minute Waltz, which I’d like to learn, and I’d also like to learn to play fast Mozart, Bach, and Beethoven pieces, or even more. I have to re-train and teach myself, and learn to do finger exercises and scales that I used to do when I took private piano lessons, because I forgot.

Great Refresher for Returning Piano Player
This book is written by the same company– and may, indeed, be the very same one– as I used to work from for the 9 years I played piano as a child and teenager. I had fond memories of enjoying my warm-up scales, and this book has not disappointed me as I return to playing piano over 20 years later. My hand muscles are rebuilding as a result of working on the exercises in this book daily, I have found them approaching in their difficulty and at the same time engaging and fun to play. The left-handed exercises have left my left hand humming and warm and I am always feeling dexterous and ready to move on to other sheet music after 15 minutes of work from this book. Highly recommend for any player, and particularly returning players like me!

A collection of time tested exercises.
This contains exercises designed to develop dexterity and independence. Finger numbers are included to facilitate various crossovers. This is not a single author book. It is a collection time tested exercises that have been used by players for many decades. Master these and you will be able to shred keys like Vanhalen shreds guitar.

A Must – Be Patient – Be Diligent
In the past I have taken violin lessons and one of the tools used to advance were books on “etudes” – which are technique practice books designed to exercise your hands so that you develop muscle memory. They can be challenging – as they should be.This is that for piano. Day one – an exercise for the left hand – running the c major scale. I have been doing this one for two weeks – and can see the difference in my left hand’s performance. They will drive your family insane with the repetition.I would suggest the reader to use a metronome with these practices. start at 80 and increment by 10 every 5-10 reps until you cannot do it anymore. Then attempt this again the next day. 200 seems to be my current limit on the metronome.This is a must have.

The books title is misleading.I wanted a book that started with all the scales, arpeggios and then ended with a large variety of different exercises.This book begins with page after page after page of very repetitive exercises. Starting with the left hand only.These repetitive exercises I already have and they are very similar to just practicing scales.Sending this back.Will have to look for another book.
