Exercises for Right and Left Hands

These exercises for both hands start off with the right. Once these are learnt then
continue on with the left, finally adding both hands. The formulas and arpeggios for
the right hand will be played over a 4-note CM7 chord (and it's inversions).
D. Carbajal once told me in class, "the right hand should be considered as a
string quartet..." (thumb or p: the chello; index or i: the viola; middle or m: violin 2;
ring finger or a: violin 1). "Protagonism among the 4 instruments changes and
varies depending on the musical circumstances of a particular piece." That means
we have to be able to find the right balance avoiding the bass strings to"drown out"
the treble strings.
