Question

Fredrik Ullén recorded a set of 100 works in this genre by Kaikhosru Shapurji Sorabji (“KAI-kohs-roo SHAH-pour-jee soh-ROB-jee”). The final work in a collection of pieces in this genre begins with the right hand playing eighth notes (read slowly) “D-flat, C, B-flat, A, B-flat” while the right index finger and thumb alternate (20[1])in sixty-fourth-notes between D-flat and F and is titled “Chasse-neige” (“shas-nehj”). Carl (*) Czerny (“CHAIR-nee”) collected (10[1])many works in this genre in collections such as The School of Velocity and The Art of Finger Dexterity. Frédéric Chopin (“cho-PAN”) composed a “Revolutionary” piece in this genre, and Franz Liszt composed a set of 12 “Transcendental” ones. For 10 points, name these pedagogical musical pieces that take their name from the French for “study.” ■END■

ANSWER: études [accept study or studies until “study” is read; accept 100 Transcendental Studies or Études transcendantes or Études transcendentales or “Revolutionary Étude” or Transcendental Études or Études d’exécution transcendante]
