The scale training exercise complete book, supervised by Yoshiko Kurokawa. This is a revolutionary collection of all-key scale exercises designed to help both aspiring and practicing pianists practice essential scales efficiently. The major and minor (harmonic and melodic minor) scales in the 12 keys are an important part of the practice for learning tonality and training the muscles and joints of the hand. The human hand is flexible, and the thumb and other fingers bend in different directions, making it easy to turn and play a wide range of notes. However, it is important to learn scales from an early age because the correct playing style is required, such as knowing how to turn the fingers when playing speed is faster, the position of the black keys and white keys, and how to use the wrist. To play scales smoothly with all five fingers (one hand), the turn of the first finger is significant. It is advisable to practice scales from an early age to improve the turns. The fingering of the scale changes depending on the key. It takes a lot of time to learn them because fingering is different for the right hand and the left hand as well. Also, although the scale is written in two-fourths time, if you are not used to it, you may end up playing one octave at a time. Various exercises are described in this book to help you solve these problems. It takes a lot of time to play scales well by nature, but that is why it is important to practice efficiently.
