While much teaching material used to be based on drillen (which means that many people still effortlessly recite rows of German prepositions), ‘understanding’ is now the key word. Learning to play the piano is no different. Yet that old-fashioned drilling is not so crazy; at some point you will have to have a certain mastery of the technique. The tried and tested method since 1873 is that of Hanon, with which you learn dexterity and independence in twenty increasingly difficult exercises. If you can do them all in every key, you’re pretty proficient and thanks to Hanon Online (free!) you can get started right away.
