Hanon Reborn!

"The exercises of Charles-Louis Hanon have been part of nearly every pianist's training for well over a century. However, since Hanon's publication in 1873, the piano has changed significantly. Longer strings, larger hammers, and heavier actions impose technical demands on today's pianist that were unanticipated at the time of Hanon. The finger technique prescribed by Hanon may have been adequate for early keyboards of his time -- the organ, harpsichord, fortepiano, and early pianoforte; but the modern grand requires an updated approach to piano technique. Hanon intended his 60 exercises of The Virtuoso Pianist to develop "agility, independence, strength, and perfect evenness in the fingers." Too often though, these exercises produce tension instead of dexterity. This edition provides vital preparatory exercises and practice routines that consistently develop the fine-motor skills for virtuosity at the modern piano." -- Quoted from "Hanon-Faber: The New Virtuoso Pianist"
