Teaching the piano was an important source of income for Brahms, as it was for many nineteenth-century
composers. This gave rise to collections of exercises which at first he only occasionally wrote down, but later shared with
other pianists (e. g. Clara Schumann). It was only after he had largely given up this educational and pianistic activity that
he considered publishing them. In order to reflect their level, he suggested all kinds of instruments of torture, from the
thumb screw to the iron maiden for the title page. We are now publishing this collection, which is essential for Romantic
piano playing, as an Urtext edition, following the musical text of the New Brahms Complete Edition.
