Broken Chords & Arpeggios
The technique of playing broken chords and arpeggios within the Russian school starts with the playing of tonic triads as chords. These are then played in inversions, as broken chords and then ultimately as arpeggios. This video gives step-by-step methods for practising and teaching broken chords and arpeggios, including the development of speed and accuracy.
