Features: Czerny's Piano School of Velocity, Op. 849, is generally suitable for students who have completed around 70 pieces from Piano Elementary Exercises, Op. 599. However, for younger piano students or those with weaker foundational skills, additional supplementary practice may be necessary depending on their finger independence. For instance, Piano Elementary Exercises, Op. 139 by Czerny can serve as a transitional piece. While mastering this sheet music is not particularly difficult, the term Piano School of Velocity implies a certain speed requirement. To truly achieve this, considerable effort is needed. First, we must ensure that students, with their fingers initially gaining independence, learn to apply wrist movements appropriate to different note patterns to handle prolonged repetitions of the same patterns—knowing that this was one of the most common textures in 19th-century music.
