Lesson 9

Changing the

left thumb position

 

 

――――――

 

 

During playing, the change of the left thumb position to use different octaves is rather difficult for beginners. So, let's have an exercise, which we play in non-legato, legato and staccato:

 

 

Exercise 1: non-legato

 

 

 

Exercise 2: legato

 

 

 

Exercise 3: staccato

 

 

 

 

For more exercises you may also play the exercises of lesson 7,

but one octave higher.
