Ah the image is shrunk. Look here:
Basically it says that the GReef Etudes are excellent additions to any pianist's repertoire  ;).

And here are the Etudes:

What do you think?
For us musicians, the music of Beethoven is the pillar of fire and cloud of mist which guided the Israelites through the desert.  (Roughly quoted, Franz Liszt.)

Thanks for the .pdf's. I'm going to have a look at Greef's music when I get a chance.

Excellent scans BTW, did you do them yourself? 8)


Cheers

Greetings.

Ah, if only someone had Lack etudes, it would be pleasant. I am fascinated by the amount of derelict studies that perhaps could be of help.

Interesting. These etudes look alot like Moszkowski. I see arpeggios of all kinds, chords, double notes, intervals, octaves, etc. They look very challenging and almost Czerny based.

Being a Liszt pupil, this man interests me.

I have been trying to obtain his Piano Concerto from the British Library, but it is not yet out of copyright and the original pulishers are not helpfull.

His works need further investigation.

His Etudes seem very pianistic and there seem to be at least a couple of novel effects explored.  I hope they're good music, and I have not tried them yet.  CHeers!

Would there by any chance be any Lack etudes?

No sorry, although I saw some on this forum a few months back.
