This fresh look at Hanon's popular studies includes innovative student worksheets; 'virtuoso' variation suggestions; informative historical and biographical facts; chromatic-scale exercises, and fully orchestrated accompaniments for each exercise in a variety of styles on CD or GM disk. The CD includes both a practice and a performance tempo for each exercise. Download a complimentary Virtuoso Variations chart for these Hanon exercises today!"
