Etude op. 10 no. 4 in C# minor.
The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side. (Hunter Thompson)

You are welcome.

(Yes, really, an etude  :o :D. It does put Hanon and Czerny to shame, does it not? ;))

I think this is the butterfly etude? Anyway, if you DO want to practice it, tell me if your hands feel sore after. I considered it for a while but I went to the Sospiro because while both are hard and pretty, this Chopin one just scared me once I sight read it.

LOL, yes definately.

I don't want to learn it, I just wanted to get a longer recording and follow the score, because it sounds very impressive  :o

Er... no.

The butterfly etude is Op. 25 no. 9 in Gb major.
