School of Velocity, No. 3 in C major
About this arrangement
It comes from Czerny's Die Schule der Geläufigkeit, Op. 299, a set of 40 studies to build finger speed. Nos. 1-30 were first published in 1833.
Start at 50% tempo with the right hand alone and keep every note the same volume. Raise the tempo in small steps only when the runs stay even.
Start with short loops.
Use the section list as a practice map. Start at 50% tempo, loop one section, then return to the full piece once the hand shape feels stable.
Choose Right or Left to focus on one hand. Wait for note checks the highlighted notes as you play them on the screen or a connected MIDI keyboard.
