These web pages host the Pentatonic Hanon 01-12-20 video performances. You should have worked through methodically from Page One and will by now have played the exercises in C, E flat and E (none, two and three black keys).
Next in the series are the play-by-ear (PBE) pages, which offer the exercises in C (no black keys), B flat and D (1), E flat and A (2), and A flat and E (3).
So, in preparation, you should drill the D, B flat, A and A flat major pentatonic scales.
Drill the D major pentatonic scale using the keyboard illustration and the Build-up of Tones video. The D major pentatonic scale uses one black key.
