Technical Exercises - Complete by Franz Liszt (1811-1886). Edited by Julio Esteban. For piano. Masterworks; Piano Collection; Technique Musicianship. Alfred Masterworks Editions. Classical Period and Instructional. Advanced; Early Advanced. Instructional book. Introductory text and standard notation. 223 pages. Published by Alfred Music Publishing (AP.630).
ISBN 0739022121. With introductory text and standard notation. Classical Period and Instructional. 9x12 inches.
This 223-page edition is comprised of 86 different technical exercises composed by Liszt during 1868 to 1880. Liszt intended these highly challenging exercises to build greater performance skills in virtuoso pianists. The complete series consists of twelve volumes, each one dealing with a different pianistic problem. This edition has been compiled from the original set to present the exercises in a reasonable length without harming the essence and effectiveness of the original work.
