Daily finger training is essential to improving your piano skills.
Those of you who are still beginners at the piano may have the opportunity to play Beethoven's sonatas someday, but in order to be able to play a large piece of music that lasts about 15 to 20 minutes, you will need to build up your strength even more than you do now. Therefore, we would like to introduce three books of sheet music that we recommend for daily finger training, so please use them as a reference.
Complete translation of Hanon piano textbook
Hanon is so famous that I think many people are already practicing it. This is a collection of etudes that focus on scales and arpeggios, and also includes plenty of grace notes such as trills and tremolos. Since it is composed of various keys, this sheet music is highly recommended for beginner piano players to get used to the harmonization.
Moszkowski 15 etudes
Compared to Hanon, the songs are more melodious and attractive, and you can learn how to play polyphonic melodies and legato techniques. This collection of songs may be a little difficult for beginners, but as you improve your level of perfection, it will become more and more fun to play, so please give it a try.
Czerny etude
Czerny's etude collection includes numbers 100, 110, 30, 40, 50, and 60. Like Hannon, his songs center around scales and arpeggios, but he also has a solid tonality, so in addition to basic techniques, you can learn how to play rich harmonies. By the way, as a trivia, Czerny has an amazing history of having taught piano to Beethoven and to Liszt.
