A finger playing a white key,pre-ceeding one which is about to play a black key, (as from E toF# ) strike close to the black, and the following finger strikeson the end of the black. In and out movements on the keys arethus avoided. In accomplishing these positions and move -ments, a close, light touch, without accents or rhythms,is atfirst most helpful.
