About the piece
Twenty short studies by Cornelius Gurlitt, each concentrating on a specific problem of rhythm or expressive shaping rather than on finger velocity.
Gurlitt's teaching pieces are prized by teachers for their honesty: they are short, they state their purpose plainly, and they sound like music rather than like drills, which keeps young students willing to practise them.
