Liszt versus Hanon or Czerny?

[bitus]

What do you think about Liszt Technical Exercises? Are they better than Hanon or Czerny?
(I personaly don't agree with a lot of the fingerings in Czerny, though i had to do a lot in my early years.)
The Bitus
ps. Does anybody know where i could find the "Technical Exercises - Liszt" cheaper than $25 (listed price)?

It depends on what you require.

Hanon is for the beginning pianist who needs the basics of technique building, same with Czerny's Prepatory Exercises.

Czerny also wrote special etudes for finger dexterity (think SOV) and independance as well as strength.

As for Liszt... I truly don't really know whether he intended them to really teach a point of technique or just show off an aspect of technique.

[etudes]

go for liszt
i own that book (technical exercises edited by J.Esteban alfred published)
the octave and chord exercises are worth trying

[pianowelsh]

Generally books like Beringer and Hanon lead upto Liszt exercises but myself I prefer Brahms 51 exercises as i feel they allow more musical treatment but with exception of one or two holding exerecises in the liszt volume i dont think they would do you any harm.

[etudes]

i think every exercise books have a good part and bad part in itself
only that how can you use to develop yourself
well.i still stick with liszt it helps me on the octave part alot
now i drill with chromatic exercise in that book
btw i dont really like holding stuff too. i skip all of them and do what i need more
