Hello fellow pianists!  I'm Erasmus, a Middle-age, Early Intermediate Level, self-taught pianist....
Now, I have a very 'good' question about this book, can someone out there answer it for me, please....  Thank you - in advance!  "New Modernized Hanon": Hanon Revisited . . .
 *HERE IS THE QUESTION: This seems like it could really help me alot, but does anyone know "IF" there are 'finger numbers' on all of the notes througout the "entire" book??  I sure hope so, as it would make it easier for me to study and work harder at this one particular great Hanon....  Would someone from SMP (www.SheetMusicPlus.com), or someone else out there please let me know by writing a review directly after this one, thank you very much - in advace. Wish you all a great day! :)
