Parag already mentioned the wonderful Debussy. It has a variety of repeated note ideas.

I believe Frederic Wieck's studies also have some etudes for repeated notes for both left and right hands.
What about Alborada and Scarbo?

I wish to bump this request... would be really wonderful to have.

It's this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3kX71cAOg0

from what I can understand from the video, that Etude n.17 is not included in op.103 set.
Nor can be included in the short sets op.70 and 76. op.51 seems not to be available in Vienna or Berlin
very strange indeed

Thanks Caprotti for checking... The Op.51 has been around and was posted here: viewtopic.php?f=11&t=156&hilit=kessler&start=110 (page twelve of this thread, last post).

that was just one, I know, but Pazdirek speaks about 'Etudes rhapsodiques' so there should be more than one

add the fact that op.100 was originally formed by 25 etudes but the the Dachs edition comes with only 20 of those

anyway I don't think that the piece played and post on youtube could belong to a so rare set ... we should ask to the performer ...

Steve Reich's Piano Phase isn't exactly an example of repeated notes,
it's actually the phrase itself (trope) which is repeated in both hands
with the left hand on a second piano gradually getting out of phase
with the right, then gradually getting back in phase again.

Nah! Not really repeated notes, but that performance is quite a stunt. Kudos to McGill for teaching how Reich's phasing works.
