Ok interesting. So the only goal of this papier is to compare the fingerings of a few editions of the 30 etudes? I have only read it for 15 minutes or so. Nice to see the different fingerings.
I think it is also interesting how the author has focused on each etude as a musical piece (and I suppose there are a few doing this already on YouTube), and their take on interpretation. But yes, having the (suggested fingering) Les, is, if nothing else, anther way to compare notes (boom boom..)
Gary Karr, in one of his videos, suggests that part of learning any new piece - after reading through it without the instrument - is devising one's own fingerings and bowings. Of course, that assumes that the musician has sufficient experience and judgment to do so well.
Looks like some legit research, although it is simply a performance edition with a lot of editing and annotations. Nonetheless, it looks like a meaningful contribution to performance/pedagogy materials. Thanks for sharing.
Doubtful it's written by a TB contributor. Doctoral students don't (shouldn't) have time to be on TB.
