This book has very good print and excellent binding and paper quality. There are few fingering marks, but for music this unique, I believe you need to figure out your own approach. This is an excellent buy. All twelve of Debussy's etudes are here: Folks interested in these etudes may find themselves interested also in Gyorgy Ligeti's preludes and Musica ricercata by Schott.Contents1. For the five fingers in the manner of Mr. Czerny2. In thirds3. In fourths4. In sixths5. In Octaves6. For eight fingers7. In chromatic half-steps8. For ornaments9. For repeated notes10. For contrasted sonorities11. In compound arpeggios12. In chordsFor critical reviews of this material, I recommend going to the IMSLP.org website for public domain downloadable pdf files that contain all the comments and material for conceptual and physical approaches, specifically the following edition:Editor: Eberhardt Klemm (1929-1991)Publisher Info.: Klavierwerke, Band V Leipzig: Edition Peters, 1970.
