Description
No.30 is a somewhat longer study, spanning 75 seconds with 1,510 notes. It serves as a comprehensive check on the speed and stamina built up through the preceding thirty studies, requiring finger agility and overall arm relaxation to be maintained together. It marks something of a milestone for intermediate players.
Forty studies by Czerny that build the technique for fast passagework, developing finger independence and agility.
