[edit] Aeolian Harp
why "Aeolian Harp" under See Also?
- See the "Aeolian harps in literature and music" section. I agree that it makes little sense, though. — Pladask 09:18, May 12, 2005 (UTC)

- If anyone makes a stub about Chopin's 25/1 etude, we can move the 'see also' there... it certainly doesn't belong here. Maybe I'll try to write the stub, as soon as I'll manage. --Missmarple 20:44, 18 May 2005 (UTC)
[edit] List of etude composers
I moved the stubbish list of etude composers into separate section. I think this list could grow into one similar to that of the string quartet article. I suggest it is sorted chronologically by birth date like the string quartet composer list; That way we'll get a nice and natural separation of "technical" etudes from "musical" etudes. Any thoughts? — Pladask 16:58, Jun 11, 2005 (UTC)
I think it's a good idea. I'm going to add some of the composers that I found while surfing on amazon.com (according to these links: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10]... more to come) and also some composers according to the regulations of the Val Tidone competitions. --Missmarple 10:42, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)
- Do Godowsky's paraphrases on Chopin's etudes count as etudes, too? --Missmarple 16:19, 12 Jun 2005 (UTC)

- In my opinion they do. I was just about to add them. — Pladask 18:20, Jun 12, 2005 (UTC)
- What about Hanon's exercises? Should the article at least mention them? -Missmarple 15:38, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Pius Cheung
This looks like it may be a conflict-of-interest edit; the issue has already arisen on CheungPius's talk page. I would say it can go if if it's published and there are reviews available to indicate that it is notable. Otherwise, not. Sorry to be difficult like this, but since we want to be a solid reference source it is necessary for us to err on the side of caution.
Here is what I removed:
- Pius Cheung (born 1982): wrote Étude in e minor for the marimba

[edit] Mike Oldfield
Mike Oldfield has a track named Etude on his Killing Fields soundtrack. Is this an 'étude' in the sense of this article, i.e. was it written as a practice exercise? Thanks in advance for answering. Ryancolm 13:48, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
