The Czech-born composer, pianist and teacher Carl Czerny (1791-1857) was born in Vienna. He was a pupil of Ludwig van Beethoven. In addition to performing concerts, he also composed and arranged the music of his contemporaries. His main focus, however, was on teaching. Among his pupils was Ferenc Liszt. Czerny's 160 eight-bar etudes are accompanied by notes that facilitate their correct mastery. The exercises are arranged according to difficulty.
