***UPDATED on 6/29/21: I made an error on the second page of the exercise, which is now fixed 🙂

We’re now in Denton, TX!

Here are some exercises I worked on for the solo from Leonore Overture. They’re perfect if you need a little something different to practice in your scale and arpeggio practice, while also making progress on the excerpt.

I strongly recommend transposing these exercises in every key, as noted at the top of the page. I didn’t write it out because I want you to use your brain! I know this would be a ton of work to do in one day, so spread it out- maybe choose a key, and do all the exercises in that key. Or do one of the exercises in all of the keys.

Definitely break it down so it’s accessible for your individual level, and repeat as many times as necessary. I marked repeats in every exercise. I personally like to be able to repeat exercises indefinitely, until I feel that I can execute it reliably.
