Summary of This Method
Salsa Hanon Play-Along - 50 Essential Exercises For Latin Piano offers a selection of 50 essential exercises designed to strengthen piano technique while integrating the rhythmic reflexes specific to Latin styles. The "Hanon" spirit is clearly embraced: intelligent repetition, precision, control, and touch stability, all serving a smoother and more reliable playing.
The major asset of this edition is its play-along CD, which transforms practice sessions into genuine musical training. By playing with the accompaniment, you refine your sense of tempo, articulation, and ability to maintain a steady pulse-qualities essential for salsa and Afro-Latin music. This method is aimed at pianists who want to move from purely mechanical exercises to a more musical practice focused on "performance."
Presented as a sequel to Hanon's The Virtuoso Pianist, this method positions itself as a logical continuation for those wishing to maintain daily technical discipline while exploring more Latin-tinged colors and patterns. Perfect for enriching a warm-up routine, consolidating coordination between hands separately and together, and gaining confidence in transitions.
