This book is about three sets of etudes by Liszt: the Etude en douze
exercices (1826), its reworking as Douzes grandes etudes (1837), and
their reworking as Douzes etudes d'execution transcendante (1851). At
the same time it is a book about nineteenth-century instrumental music
in general, in that the three works invite the exploration of features
characteristic of the early Romantic era in music. These include: a
composer-performer culture, the concept of virtuosity, the significance
of recomposition, music and the poetic, and the consolidation of a
musical work-concept.
