Piano Safari: Technical Exercises & Rote Pieces, Katherine Fisher & Julie Knerr. Piano

The Technical Exercises & Rote Pieces book is designed to supplement any standard piano method. It contains pattern-based pieces and exercises that are to be taught by rote. It is our intent that students regularly listen to the audio recording of each piece as they work through the book. As a result, their ears will already be accustomed to the style, articulation, tempo, phrasing, and dynamics necessary for musical performance. The audio recording is available as a Digital Download.

The pieces and exercises are excerpted from Piano Safari Repertoire Books 1 and 2, including:

Rote Pieces from Piano Safari Repertoire Book 1
Rote Pieces from Piano Safari Repertoire Book 2
Technique Exercises based on animals from Repertoire Book 1
Rote Pieces that correspond to the Animal Technique Exercises
