The Quiet Revolutionary of the Piano – Fauré’s Complete Piano Works Now on Piano Street

In the pantheon of French music, Gabriel Fauré (1845–1924) often seems a paradox—an innovator cloaked in restraint, a Romantic by birth who shaped the contours of modern French music with quiet insistence. Piano Street now provides sheet music for his complete piano works: a body of music that resists spectacle, even as it brims with invention and brilliance. Read more

sharon_f , are you sure?  I just bought the sheet music for J.B. Cramer's Study #35 from www.everynote.com and it doesn't sound anything like that song...maybe it's a different study??

Sorry, about that.  :( My Ricordi Edition of 60 Selected Studies has it listed as #35. Different editions different numbers, I hate that. 

I'm glad you posted the link to the video. I did a few of the Cramer Studies a while back but not that one. It looks like it would be a great warm-up exercise. I think I'll learn it.
