New Etudes, Book 4

Timothy Brown

In this collection, playing legato versus staccato, emphasizing melody in the left hand, exploring broken chords and extensions, balancing melody between the hands, and studying pieces with whole-tone patterns guide students and teachers through an etude series focused on musicianship and technical development. Each piece can supplement skills emphasized in lessons, or serve as an independent piece for repertoire or performance.
