Thank you very much Paul. It seems that Xavier Carlier was a Belgian pianist and composer who died at the early age of 32 from typhus just when he settled in Russia in 1894.

What an interesting storage room your school has! I hope that maybe there are more treasures to come from there.

Hi all,

I'm trying to find information about Tibor Harsányi's "Étude" (No.9 from "12 Petites Pièces") and a isolated "Étude" for piano.

Any knowledge about this works out there?
The sheet music will be perfect...

This is the "Étude" from the 12 pieces: https://youtu.be/mE705HOUZbk
And here is the independent "Étude": https://www.naxos.com/catalogue/item.as ... code=GP807 (and the other one too)
Thanks.

Do you guys know of any "Prélude" by J. Ibert besides the "Prélude" from "Petite Suite En Quinze Images"?
I'm looking for a Ibert's "Prélude" but it must have a difficulty of approximately grade 5.

Thanks.

Likely if it is piano.
But you can find preludes in some of his chamber music :

According to the official Ibert website, and a full list of piano works (see attached - page 20) - there is no individual Prelude listed.
