History has long been stamped with the name of Carl Czerny in the domain of piano pedagogy, due to the substantial number of didactic piano exercises that Czerny produced. As a result, Czerny’s “canonic” pedagogical works have overshadowed other unrecognized piano études. At the turn of the nineteenth century, the cultivated form of concert études entered the output of almost every pianist-composer, and yet traditionally, attention in piano pedagogy has centered on études by Czerny, Burgmüller, Liszt, Schumann and Chopin. More recent research pays tribute to études by other composers, such as Clementi, Cramer, Hummel and Moscheles. The current lack of documentation and analysis of piano études written by female pianists is undeservedly a great loss to pedagogy and keyboard literature. Not only do these études give modern musicians a glimpse into the pianism and professionalism of the earliest accomplished women pianists, but the varieties in their études also form a comprehensive training method that ranges from the intermediate level to the advanced level. The virtuosity and brilliance of the advanced études deserve to be considered in league with other long-standing piano études that have already been glorified and performed throughout history. The purpose of this pedagogical study is to shed light on these hidden treasures of études which are invaluable pedagogical resources. To concisely demonstrate the varieties of pianistic techniques, this analysis will focus solely on two collections of études: Eight Übungsstücke (1823) by Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel (1805 – 1847), and Six Concert de Études Op. 11 (1881) by Agathe Backer Grøndahl (1847 – 1907).
