Description
No.2 packs 711 notes into just 33 seconds, a noticeably denser piece than its predecessor. It demands quick, even finger response to keep fast passages level in both speed and volume. As part of a collection rooted in Czerny's systematic teaching approach, this study rewards focused, intermediate-level practice.
Forty studies by Czerny that build the technique for fast passagework, developing finger independence and agility.
