Minor Alkan Etudes: favorite and hardest?
on: August 14, 2024, 06:34:14 AM
(Repost of my earlier thread, which I decided was too broad. It's possible that said thread will have been removed by the time that you're seeing this.)

Which of Alkan's minor etudes do you like best, and which ones do you think are hardest?
IMO Le Preux, Le Chemin de Fer, and Op. 76 no. 2 are the hardest, and Le Chemin de Fer is probably the best of these 11.

There will be separate threads for the Op. 35 Major Keys and Op. 39 Minor Keys Etudes.
