School of Velocity, Op. 299: Piano

(Schott). Viennese composer, pianist and renowned teacher Carl Czerny (1791-1857) wrote more than a thousand works, including masses, operas, orchestral, chamber and piano works. But his fame rests on his many studies and exercises for the piano. These are new editions, newly engraved, with introductory articles in English, for the moderately advanced pianist, in progressive order of difficulty.
