Carl Czerny op 299 no 13

Carl Czerny op 299 no 13 - THE SCHOOL OF VELOCITY

Today I want to share my perfomance of this Czerny's etude on a Yamaha C5 at "Angelè Pianoforti" in Matino (Italy).
This etude op. 299 no.13 in B flat major is helpful on practising broken octaves. The rests written for the right hand give us the opportunity to release the tension and prepare the hand for the next task.
Musically speaking, this piece is full of sequences which allow us to be creative on approaching the same motif in a different way. 🎹

Carl Czerny (1791-1857) was an Austrian composer, pianist, and pedagogue, who wrote over a thousand musical works. A precocious child prodigy, he studied with Beethoven and had given his first public performance by the age of 10. He is often described as the “Father of Modern Piano” having taught a whole generation of pianists, most famously Franz Liszt .

He composed a very large number of pieces (more than one thousand and up to Op. 861). Czerny's works include not only piano music (études, nocturnes, sonatas, opera theme arrangements and variations) but also masses and choral music, symphonies, concertos, songs, string quartets and other chamber music. The better known part of Czerny's repertoire is the large number of didactic piano pieces he wrote, such as The School of Velocity and The Art of Finger Dexterity. He was one of the first composers to use étude ("study") for a title. Czerny's body of works also include arrangements of many popular opera themes.

Recorded at Angelé Pianoforti (Matino)
