@Glerzhus. Could you tell me a bit more about the Chopin trois novelles etudes? I've never heard of them before and I'm really interested.

not really sure why they aren't typically included with 10 and 25 but they are very nice pieces. when performed i usually see people play all 3 of them together but i personally would prefer to use one as an into/outro(?). they mostly help with practicing polyrhythms but i just love that motive of #1 haha, very fun to mess around with it every now and then
