What a great set of etudes, and to think that I just stumbled upon them whilst I was actually looking at something else on the publishers website! Originally written in 1911, these studies are very melodic and full of challenges; the range extends over 3 octaves and they also utilise hand stopping and transpositions. Old notation is used when written in the bass clef, and several of the studies also make use of motifs from well-known classical works which is quite nice.
