Pischna: 60 Progressive Exercises (Tägliche Studien)
“Tägliche Studien (60 Exercices progressifs)” is a work by Josef Pischna (1826–1896) with 60 pieces, difficulty 4–6/10. Finger exercises more demanding than Hanon: held notes, stretches and shifts through different keys. A solid bridge to advanced studies. 60 of them have a playable score in Estudio de Piano, with the microphone or MIDI.
What it trains
- Finger independence and strength with sustained notes.
- Control of stretches and position changes.
How to practice it
- Isolate each difficult measure and repeat it slowly before joining it to the next.
- Check your forearm for tension every few minutes; if it appears, stop and shake out your hand.
- Work on each hand separately: the two hands are rarely equally difficult.
