Omar Soriano describes "the Janko Melody Problem", which is having too
many options for fingering a single melody. He then offers up a Three
Principle Approach, revolving around thinking in terms of shapes to
group together notes of a melody to efficiently learn and memorize them.
He then demonstrates the approach by walking the player through learning the melody to the Great American Song "Perdido" on the Lippens keyboard.

Note: I really would like to challenge Notation Reformists to think in terms of SHAPES as they design new notations. The Challenge, of course, being that different instruments shape the same figures differently
