About Franz Liszt's Etude in 12 Exercises

This youthful set of studies is the origin of the later and much more famous Transcendental Etudes, published 25 years later. Written when Liszt was only 15, they are quite a bit easier to tackle than the later versions, and an interesting sample of Liszt style before he had accomplished his great revolution of piano technique.
