second nature to your fingers and you can focus on playing clear phrases with beautiful

‘Tempo: Quarter Note = 100-116
Play from Beginning to end.
Performance Guide:
‘This piece (in F-major) greatest challenge is maintaining consistent finger/tongue (articulation)
coordination throughout its entirety. Players should be cautious to not play this etude too fast or
technique/articulation clarity and style will get inconsistent or lost, Properly clipping the last
slurred sixteenth note before consecutive staccatos or lifting off of the dated eighth/sixteenth
notes to set up a light articulated staccato note will add clarity and a finesse style to this etude,
Accents should be played to bring out arrival notes within a phrase or syncopation without being
too harsh. It is worth noting that the places in this elude that involve trills are places where
tempo/rhythm will tend to get lost and practicing subdivision with a metranome will help keep
consistency in both areas. It is recommended that Bis 8-Flat fingering be used throughout most
of this piece unless going to a B-Natural in which Side B-Flat fingering may be the better choice
Middle C-Sharps can be played using the "Covered C-Sharp" fingering for better tuning and
technical purposes -- although certain places playing "Open C-Sharp" may be a better option due
to smaller intervals and/or faster note values involved, From a dynamics perspective -- this
piece has clear dynamic markings throughout but performers shauld be careful not to use too
uch contour dynamics where there are long phrases that start at "p" and sustains su
dynamic level until crescendos are marked. Although this etude is upbeat and has its technical
passages --it lends itself to being very musical with the use of vibrato on longer value notes.

‘Tempo: Eighth Note = 88-100
Play from Beginning to end.
Performance Guide:
Executing a wide range of dynamics combine with changing the intensity (width and speed) of
vibrato from the beginning to the end of phrases (including the choice to not use vibrato when
phrases end softly) -- can make this piece, in the key of A minor, very dramatic throughout, All
of the grace notes in this piece should be played before the beat and trills should be played with
little to no rubato -- otherwise, the piece can lose its meladic direction. Staccata notes should be
