Similar to cyclic works the movements, which could also be described as performance pieces or concert studies, are each of different character. The fact that they were conceived as studies is manifest in that the composer elaborated a rhythmic idea or treated a technical problem in depth in each of them. The ‘cast’ of the setting changes, however: sometimes the ensemble falls into two parts, on other occasions the parts are imitating and of equal importance. The ‘Six Studies’ provide chamber music for intermediate and advanced pupils.
