Thanks again.
I can't imagine piece like that would be an etude. Now though i have the sheet music, but i still can't play it:)

It's called the Cello Etude, for obvious reasons. It seems easy compared to the other etudes but to keep the "cello" melody legato and expressive, and to add the ornamentation in an effortless way...not so easy.

By the way, thanks for the link to the Schiff lectures. He's an amazing figure, speaks so well, and plays beautifully...
