Alkan 12 Etudes in all Major Keys, Op.35 - No.12 in E Major

[@JamesBower-yj6ew]

This sounds rather similar to Burgmuller's op.105 no.9 - the 2 geniuses must of appreciated each other!

I love this video

[@erikfreitas7093]

Wonderful étude!

One of my absolute favorites!

Better than CHopins octave etude

[@thenameisgsarci]

the octaves plus the 10/16 time signature surely confuses the performer...

[@calebhu6383]

Confuses the sightreader, not the performer.

@Mily Balakirev How about 125/47 ?!

@@canman5060 how 'bout the root of 2/pi

[@norixsynth]

Czerny And Alkan = The bosses

[@tackontitan]

That's an awful time signature but I'd bet afterwards octaves would never be a problem

[@ensiehsafary7633]

It's amazing time signature . I've never seen 10/16

[@Zaksporebrainiac]

not if you practice it slowly

[@4candles]

Not if you're a professional! ;)

[@ethanchen3660]

is this just me or there's chopin's influence?

Butterfly etude

[@michaelw.4469]

Chopin and Alkan were close friends so it's definitely possible that either Alkan or Chopin composed the original, and the other one made his own version on it
