“For advanced pianist and for pedagogues, Techniques Pianistiques was written by Gerd Kaemper. In French, this book is divided into three main parts: 1. Pre-scientific formation of the technique, 2. Scientific Studies of the technique and 3.Methodic learning of the technique. The first part focuses on the fact that Piano could be played before the XIX century without all the technical constraint imposed by the scientific formation techniques. The second part highlights which of these scientific formation techniques were conceived in the XIX century. This part is probably the most important part of the book as it gives a clear and concise explanation of all the techniques. The third part is about the different ways to acquire these techniques more rapidly, with techniques based on finger actions for example. Gerd Kaemper is a German virtuoso pianist, who became a Doctor at the Paris University as a result of his research.&rdquo.

' 'Learning the piano is so widespread these days and good pianists so numerous that mediocrity on the instrument can no longer be accepted. In effect, the piano must be studied for eight or ten years before performance of a harder piece is attempted. Few can spare the years for this. It takes one hour to play the volume in full. Once it has been mastered, it is enough to set aside for it a little time each day and the difficulties will disappear almost like magic. Playing will become as attractive, accurate, fluent and pearly as that of the best performers.'' This piano method by the French music teacher Charles-Louis Hanon (1819-1900) appeared in 1874, with these introductory wordsaddressed to the realm of pianists. Almost a century and a half later, it remains among the most popular systems of piano tuition all around the world, and Hanon's name has become generic for systematic instrumental methods, even in types of popular music. The Virtuoso Pianist appears as a publication in six languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish and Hungarian. The volume in a new, decorative cover is useful to every pianist. Students with a years study behind them will succeed in mastering the exercises. Advanced pianists after working through the exercises will be able to tackle even serious technicaldifficulties. In the volume different forms of technical difficulty are encountered. The exercises may be performed on more than one piano simultaneously, so that students become accustomed to ensemble playing. Das Erlernen des Klavierspiels ist gegenwärtig so sehr verbreitet, und es gibt so viele gute Pianisten, dass wir uns auf diesem Instrument mit Mittelmäßigkeit nicht mehr zufriedengeben können. Das führt dazu, dass acht bis zehn JahreKlavierunterricht erforderlich sind, bevor wir riskieren können, ein schwieriges Stück zu spielen. Es gibt jedoch nur Wenige, die dem Erlernen dieses Instruments so viele Jahre widmen! Man benötigt etwa eine Stunde, um diesen Band voll und ganzdurchzuspielen. Wenn wir uns die Übungen bereits perfekt angeeignet haben, genügt es, sich täglich nur kurze Zeit mit ihm zu beschäftigen, und unsere Schwierigkeiten werden wie von Zauberhandverschwinden: Unser Spiel wird so schön, so akkurat, soleicht und perlend wie das der hervorragendsten Künstler.

A solid finger dexterity, equally well developed with regard to precise touch and time, has been until today the alpha and omega of piano technique. The school Le Pianiste-Virtuose by H.L. Hanon, the object of which is above all the development of a brilliant five fingers technique, has therefore not lost any of its high pedagogic value; these exercises not only present a solid foundation for the pupil, but also help the expert pianist to maintain his technique on its high level. Hanon's exercises are an exhaustive compendium of piano-technical foundations.
