The etudes are designed to improve the improvisational skills needed to play all seventh chords in various open and closed positions. They will help the player to become proficient in moving from one chord and scale sequence to another. Though written primarily with mallet instrumentalists in mind, this practical book is suitable for any keyboard player. / Percussions

This series is designed to help you with one of the most important musical skills of all: the ability to play on your instrument the music that you can hear in your head. This is called ear-to-hand coordination. Sequential exercises in this book along with the complementary CD (M-451, sold separately) encourage musicality while teaching the fundamentals about chord progressions and scales. The background accompaniment tape leaves out the drudgery: Instead of being bound to repeat the same old scales time and again, you are free to use your imagination—to vary the rhythm, combine patterns, and improvise. These are essential skills for the musician.
