Very early. Usually their second or third assigned piece.

They are all exceptionally useful.

For more advanced students, I also use Op. 105 and Op. 109. There are some very beautiful studies there. But they are far more difficult.

The only exception is very small children (3 - 5 years old). These need especialised repertory.

Best wishes,
Bernhard.
