Harpist Robert Nicolas Charles Bochsa (1789-1856) studied at the Paris Conservatoire and was appointed harpist to the Imperial Orchestra in France. A wonderful composer of solo works and operas, he was a renowned teacher and harpist, but his rather questionable personal life (he dabbled in counterfeiting and eventually eloped with the wife of a fellow composer) led to his relocation to London 1817, where he helped to found the Royal School of Music and taught acclaimed harpist Elias Parish-Alvars.
Bochsa's etudes for harp are standard technical studies for student harpists. Some of these etudes are even suitable as solo works, due to their lyricism and harmonic structure.
The 50 Etudes for harp are perfect for the advanced pedal harpist. Excellent for developing classical technique.
