Here is a small sample of three of Carlevaro's Microestudios (#1, 3 & 6). Chanterelle published 20 of Carlevaro's Microestudios in a four-volume set in 1990s.

Re: Week 2: A World Full of Sound! 🏖
@Wai Well Done! I really like this Estudio and you played it very cleanly and clearly. I think selecting a few of these Etudes makes a great little set of pieces to play as mini suite.
