Phillip Sear plays a most attractive study in F major - sometimes called 'Spinning Song' - from a set of 25 'Etudes Mélodiques' (c. 1845) by Stephen Heller.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Since recording some other studies a few years ago, I have rather neglected the music of the Hungarian pianist and composer Stephen Heller (Heller István (1813 -- 88)) - mainly owing the the unfeasibly large hands needed to perform many of his works correctly.  These titles appear in American and British editions with titles - but I am not sure if they are authentic - they do not appear in early editions.
