Kohler: Short School of Velocity, Opus 242

An excellent follow-up to Kohler's "12 Easy Studies," these twenty etudes continue to develop finger dexterity through broken-chord and scalar passagework. Emphasizing traditional harmonies, the works also include a variety of articulations and dynamic contrasts. Reminiscent of the easier Czerny exercises, these one- and two-page studies are easily learned by intermediate-level pianists.
