Grade 2 - Practise Scales

📖 "Don't neglect the scales and arpeggios, and think that you will make up your marks on the pieces. Everything counts in the total."
Alec Rowley's DON'TS FOR CANDIDATES FOR EXAMINATIONS, in Do's and Don'ts for Musicians. A Handbook for Teachers and Performers

📖 "When I get started at the piano, for the first 10 minutes I play scales, slowly. I have done this all my life. Listen to the sounds you make. The sound of each tone witll generate a response in you. It will give you energy."
Van Cliburn

📖 "Do you ask me how good a player you may become? Then tell me how much you practise the scales."
Carl Czerny

📖 "I consider the practice of scales important not only for the fingers, but also for the discipline of the ear with regard to the feeling of tonality, understanding of intervals, and the comprehension of the tonal compass of the piano."
Josef Hofmann

📖 "Scales should never be dry. If you are not interested in them, work with them until you do become interested in them."
Artus Rubinstein

📖 "I believe this matter of insisting upon a thorough technical knowledge, particularly scale playing, is a very vital one. The mere ability to play a few pieces does not constitute musical proficiency."
Serge Rachmaninov
