Hi Lak. The best way to decide what to practice is to figure out what it is you want to be able to do. Of course there are some basic technical exercises for every instrument which I find are good for warming up and a general sort of dexterity on the instrument, but doing Hanon exercises on the piano will never get you any closer to playing like Horowitz or Keith Jarrett.

So...what is it that you want to be able to do?
