The exercises on the following pages are excerpts from THE

CONTEMPORARY KEYBOARDIST, written by John Novello. It is

a large and very in-depth book that contains piano, theory,
approaches to practicing, etc. It is a very good book to have
around as you progress. You can purchase his books in stores or
through his website: http://www.keysnovello.com/
Another very good book geared toward Jazz piano specifically,
is THE JAZZ PIANO BOOK by Mark Levine. You can also
purchase his books in stores and at his website:
