# Exploring piano technical exercises: Grade 7 - Con Amore and Vamp Style

[Technical Work](https://resources.trinitycollege.com/piano/tag/technical-work)

 

Watch a demonstration performance of our piano Technical Exercises 'Con Amore' and 'Vamp Style' at Grade 7, with lead senior examiner and piano syllabus consultant Peter Wild.

The technical work section of Trinity’s piano exams supports the development of technical skills by assessing candidates’ performance in a range of technical work options. Candidates perform scales, arpeggios and exercises, giving a balanced suite of technical tasks to develop musical ability and technical skill.

Our exercises are specially composed short pieces designed to demonstrate three key areas of technique in performance: tone, balance and voicing; co-ordination; and finger and wrist strength and flexibility. For their exam, candidates should prepare three exercises from the graded list, two of which are played in the exam. One is chosen by the candidate and one by the examiner.
