: ; PIANOFORTE STUDIES BY GEORGE EGGELING : ;
Eighteen Melodious Octave Studiesof Medium Difficulty Op. 90 :: Price 51.00These studies, of medium grade difficulty, serve admirably as prepa-
ration for the more advanced octave studies of KULLAK and others.
While especially designed for octave practice, the musical characterof these studies gives them additional value, particularly to the pupil whoneeds not only technical training, but opportunity for study in the art
of interpretation.Hence, expression, pedal, broad phrasing, and the application of the
octave equally to right and left hands, gives this collection of studies
particular value.
The eighteen studies are- not cast in one mold, but offer a fine variety
of “pieces”. They appeal to the musical seuse, and consequently developit, while the technical training is going forward.
Fifty Melodious Etudes in all the Major & Minor Keys
Two Books :: Op. 122 :: Each 75 CentsSeveral qualities recommend these Etudes. First, they grade naturally
from a very simple two-part study in C major to a point where a variety
of rhythmic groups and simple arpeggios contribute to produce very ori-
ginal and musical pieces which are no longer than two printed pages.Each of these Etudes has a distinct purpose. To mention a few in
order will show the character of the collection as a whole. They are:
MELODY STUDIES, SIMPLE CHORD STUDIES, BROKEN SCALE GROUPS,BROKEN CHORDS ALTERNATING BETWEEN THE HANDS, INNERVOICE MELODY, SPECIFIC RHYTHM, EAST WRIST STUDIES, THESCALE AS A WHOLE, DOUBLE NOTES AND SYNCOPATIONS, and Typeforms like the WALTZ, MAZURKA, and MARCH.
Every one of these is taken up as a fundamental MUSICAL problemand tbe treatment is from the MUSICAL side. While chords are freely
employed, the octave is very sparingly used.
These Etudes will be welcomed by teachers who are looking for mu-sical pieces in which an essential problem is so presented that the student
will gaiu the good of the problem while enjoying the attractive melodicand harmonic qualities of the composition in which it is incorporated.
Book I contains Etudes in not more than three sharps or three flats.
Book II contains Etudes in all the remaining major and minor keys.
Twenty- Five Etudes (without octaves)
for Technical and Musical DevelopmentTwo Books :: Op. 170 Each 75 Cents.
(Schmidt’s Educational Series No. 16a-b)
The studies of this Opus are intended for introducing the pupil to andaffording practice in third grade work. They are somewhat more am-bitious in design and difficulty than those of Op. 122. While octaves donot appear, there is a free use of short chords and of varied rhythmsthat constitute many original short pieces. Each study aims at a specific
purpose, some of the problems presented being the following:
Studies in RHYTHM AND PHRASING, TRILL STUDIES (No. 14 is a
fine example), MELODY STUDIES, FOUR NOTES AGAINST THREE, THETURN, INNER VOICE MELODY, CHORD STUDIES (with application to
both hands equally) STUDY OF DOUBLE THIRDS (equally for both hands),
WRIST STUDIES, THE APPOGIATURA, STUDY OF PEDAL EFFECT,and VELOCITY PASSAGES.
Before beginning this Opus, the student should possess some freedomand independence in the simpler jiroblems of the items specified above(which .simpler ]»resentation is afforded by Op. 122).
Op. 176. PLEASURE AND PROGRESS35 Descriptive Etudes for the Earlier Grades
(Schmidt’s Educational Series No. 60a-b)

successfully applied many technical features in the form of short descrip-tive pieces, each bearing a suitable title and skilfully contrasted. Note-worthy features of this collection are the strongly marked rhythms em-ployed and the careful attention throughout to the equal development of
both hands. Fingering, phrasing and all details necessary for enhancingthe value of this work to teachers have been most carefully added. At-tention has also been given to variety of keys and time signatures. Thefollowing description of the various numbers will show the scope andcharacter of these studies. They are progressively arranged and cover theintermediate first and second grades.
