The most troublesome spot for most pianists to build speed and dexterity in passagework is where the thumbs tuck or the fingers cross over the hand. Ironically, this is also one of the least discussed components of technique online! This lesson teaches a great way to drill faster finger speed around and across thumb tucks and finger crosses not only in scales and arpeggios, but also in the very fast passages at the end of Chopin's Nocturne No. 20 in c-sharp minor.
