Douze �tudes

Includes: �tude 1 (5 fingers, "after Monsieur Czerny") * �tude 2 (thirds) * �tude 3 (fourths) * �tude 4 (sixths) * �tude 5 (octaves) * �tude 6 (eight fingers) * �tude 7 (chromatic degrees) * �tude 8 (ornaments) * �tude 9 (repeated notes) * �tude 10 (opposing sonorities) * �tude 11 (composite arpeggios) * �tude 12 (chords).
