 finger stretching exercises?
Author: buckeye75

I am 62 and have lost some finger flexibility Specifically I have trouble reaching the lower side keys with my left pinkie. When I play these notes, my hand tends to rotate, leaving holes uncovered. I have bent keys, but still tend to miss notes in rapid passages. I would like to know if anyone has ideas for finger stretching techniques that might help.

Thanks
