Resumen

Carl Czerny stands as one of the most influential piano pedagogues of the first half of the 19th century. A cultured musician, his life remained deeply rooted in the cultural environment of the Viennese and his name appears in the history of the piano clearly linked to pedagogy. Among his pupils are famous pianists such as: Leschetizky, Kullak and the great pianist Liszt. His extensive work for piano includes countless exercise books, studies, sonatas, fantasies, escapes, concerts, four-hand pieces, an excellent book titled Die Kunst des Vortrags (The Art of Interpretation), where he exposes how to interpret contemporary authors of his (From Mozart to Liszt), religious music, chamber music, orchestral works and a four-handed piano reduction of Beethoven's symphonies (Vallribera, 1983, p. 51). But note clearly the exercise books and studies that cover practically the globality of the difficulties of the modern technique of the piano. Given the small number of reference studies that revolve around the figure of Carl Czerny - and in particular about his opus 821-, the thesis document presented here develops an unpublished research that seeks to show objective criteria the importance Of this composer and pedagogue in the initial formation of the students. To this end, this work deals with three main contents: the evolution of the piano from its appearance to its spectacular perfection during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries; The main technical difficulties that throughout the history will appear in the pianístico repertoire; And finally, the analysis of the hundred and sixty short studies of his opus. 821 from a strictly technical perspective.
