🇩🇪Johannes Brahms ： 51 Übungen für Klavier No.7 7a-b in C-Dur WoO.6

This study uses short repeated patterns to develop coordination between the hands, finger independence, and evenness of touch. Its distinctive feature lies in the two forms, 7a and 7b, which allow the technical movement at hand to be examined in each version. Begin by carefully checking the depth of every note and the changes between fingers, while maintaining a steady pulse with a relaxed wrist. First refine the clarity of the notes and the balance of tone at a slow tempo, then increase the speed without allowing the outline of the pattern to break down. Rather than playing mechanically, a slight sense of direction within each phrase gives the exercise a musical flow alongside its pedagogical clarity.
