Free Czerny No. 14

This is No. 14 from Practical Piano Exercises, Op. 599 by Carl Czerny. Often this Op. 599 is titled in English as "Practical Exercises for Beginners" or "Practical Method for Beginners". However, we titled it as "Practical Piano Exercises" and removed "for Beginners" from the title. Only the exercises from No. 1 through No. 10 of Op. 599 are considered for beginners. After that, they get more advanced. 

Please notice that both clefs are in the treble clef. 

The fingering numbers on No. 14 are not provided on repeated notes, chords that already happened earlier in the exercise, and repeated phrases. For the right hand, please stay in the C 5-finger position strictly for the entire exercise. You'll encounter a lot of repeated notes. Oftentimes changing the finger on repeated notes is encouraged for the classical training. However, for this exercise, please use the same finger on the repeated notes. 

The 2 new challenges are happening at No. 14 for the 1st time in Op. 599. One is that players will be playing the harmonic interval of 3rd with the right hand and the other one is that the left hand has the Alberti bass pattern. Just like exercises from No. 11 through No. 13, the right-hand position is C 5-finger scale for the entire exercise and the left-hand plays I (tonic), V (dominant), and V7 (dominant 7th) chords with the Alberti bass pattern.
