"Outdated poison. There's a better way to develop piano technique: practise a piece you enjoy with fierce attention to the score and the sound of your own playing.
Addendum: After attending piano school for a week, I feel obliged to admit that there might be some value to finger exercises. However, after revisiting these, one's time could be better spent with Brahms' 51 Exercises."
"These are not only great exercises, they're fun little songs too. Most of them have at least one "trick" that helps build your technique, giving each song a rather unique and mysterious sound. Highly interesting for pianists, maybe not so much for people listening."
"Still learning the pieces. Marked as "read" though I'm not done, because piano books aren't exactly the same as regular books you can finish in a day or two. ^_^; For its purpose, this is a useful book, but it can get oh-so-boring at times. *sighs* I'm a picky player."
