that guy is so tense, he needs to figure it out. Setting a very bad example as far as technique lifting his hands way higher than wrists...WRONG.

1 that shouldnt be played on keyboard or by that guy
There is so much still to be created. 88 keys, you do the math. ∞

Okay - First of all, the second video you linked to is NOT Czerny... It's Heller. It's from a series of about 24 etudes if I'm not mistaken.

As for the first one, That one even has the Opus No in the Video - It's Op 740 from his School of Velocity studies. I don't know exactly which one it is, but it's in a minor if that helps.

That's Czerny's op.740 "The Art of Finger Dexterity", Book I, No 8, titled "Light Action of the Left Hand".
Here is a better version by Vivien H. Slater:

I have no idea what the second piece is.

Here is another take on this study (starts at 11:55). Always amazed by this recording.
