Scale exercises are considered an important part of well-known technical methods by Franz Liszt, Alfred Cortot, Marguerite Long and others. Scales, chords, and arpeggios are the musical textures, elements on which the music is built. Knowledge of these elements makes learning musical pieces easier, requiring less effort. Scale practice does not only develop finger dexterity but forces the student to think about keys/tonalities, chord progressions, fingerings, and hand positions. The purpose of this book is to introduce a piano student to the whole scope of keys by playing exercises on scales, chords, and arpeggios. In this book the exercises can be approached by the Circle of Fifths, relative Major and Minor, and via exploration of common fingering for particular groups of scales and arpeggios. This book can be successfully used to prepare for exams.
