Arpeggios, like scales and broken chords, are useful when playing piano:
- they're made from the notes of chords
- they feature in all kinds of music
Practise in a range of keys, gradually building tempo and confidence as you get more familiar.
- Start: 1 octave / each hand
- Next: 2 octaves / each hand
- Then: 1 octave / both hands
- Finally: 2 octaves / both hands (which opens the way to more octaves)
