This transcription is from Paul Wittgenstein's three-volume set, 'School for the Left Hand.' These books offer a comprehensive approach to left-hand piano technique. The breakdown into exercises, etudes, and transcriptions reflects a well-rounded exploration of the capabilities of the left hand alone. The inclusion of exercises suggests a focus on building and strengthening technical skills, while the etudes provide musical challenges for further development. The transcriptions made by Wittgenstein showcase his adaptability, demonstrating how he translated pieces originally written for both hands (and sometimes with voice or other instruments) into compelling compositions suitable for the left hand alone. This collection and his numerous commissions for left-hand piano music stand as a testament to Wittgenstein's innovation and dedication to expanding the repertoire for pianists with physical limitations.
The score to this piece is in volume 3 of his School for the Left Hand, available free at imslp.org/wiki...)
