Hi
Sorry for the delay in my response. I have worked through a few of the Balay etudes. I think they are quite good. The are much more technical than Petite Piece!! The Chavanne are very challenging. They are the same ones published by International. I agree with Ed that at some point how much material can you practice. Having said that, the material found here is interesting a a nice change from some of the more standard methods used in the USA. Also worth mentioning are the 24 etudes by Porret. They are very progressive and musical from the first etude.
