Thank you in advance,

The Anthology contains „Prelude and Canon“ op. 7 No. 1 by I.-I.
Regards Ippolitov-Ivanov - the main problem is that the composer only actually wrote a few works purely for piano - if you go into the Information & Literature section there is a copy of my 'book' which gives information of piano works by Russian & Soviet composers. For ease, I have included the composer's entry below. The only specific piano works are:
- Op 7 Cinq Petite Pieces [originally these had titles which disappeared in later editions]
- Three Caucasian Dances
- Twenty-two Oriental Melodies (Baku 1934).
The remaining piano works are arrangements / transcriptions of various orchestral or chamber works for piano solo or piano / 4 hands [not necessarily actually transcribed by the composer]. Some of these arrangements are available on IMSLP. Ippolitov-Ivanov was overall much more comfortable with vocal works, primarily songs / romances.
To my knowledge, the Op 9 Quartet has not been recorded [at least through Russian sources].

What about the remainder (that are not available on IMSLP)? Will we see them on pianophilia someday?

@Jim Fetsios, welcome to pianophilia!
Aggelos....I don't have any of the other arrangements, but you never know with PP [and I'm always searching anyway]
Thank you Alfred for your excellent fingering...your suggestions for the left hand are especially welcome. Nice of R to give us etudes using a similar pattern which exercise both hands.
