Abstract Details

The twentieth-century concert etude drew from and expanded upon the achievements of nineteenth-century composers such as Chopin and Liszt. Many composers wrote sets of etudes for piano exploring many disparate styles and techniques. While some composers rely on a general difficulty or complex compositional formulas for connection to the genre, other composers were more explicit about the technical difficulties, thus linking more directly to the tradition began by Chopin and others. This document examines and compares sets of etudes that retain this balance between concert artifice and pedagogical concerns and will examine works by Louise Talma (Six Etudes for Piano, 1954), Einojuhani Rautavaara (Etydit, Op. 42, 1969), Ned Rorem (Eight Etudes for Piano, 1975), Gyorgy Ligeti (Etudes pour Piano Premier Livre, 1985), and William Bolcom (12 New Etudes for Piano, 1986).
