The FJH Pianist's Curriculum

Energize Your Fingers Every Day, Book 2A

Helen Marlais and Timothy Brown

Short, patterned exercises with explicit "how to" tips build technical skills that can be used with all piano methods. Each technical goal is written under the title of each 4-8 measure piece i.e. balance between the hands, weight transfer, flexible wrists, strong fingers, etc. The key signatures of C, G, F and D major appear throughout the book with suggestions for transposition. The appealing art and brevity of each day’s exercise will result in tension-free technique for any student.
