How to use these:
I recommend practicing and playing etudes or studies daily. They are great for sight-reading, learning to learn notes quickly and tackling specific problems. I recommend doing about 1-3 of these each week...yes, each week! This can be a challenge at first but great fun when you get into it. Choose the category that best describes your level and start moving through the book, one study at a time.
