Transcription:
probably in 1853-54 for publication by Girod. The
‘piano-scandé’, invented by the piano-makers Lentz and
Houdart in 1853, allowed
the two pedals to be applied to single octaves at a time, thus allowing soft
pedal in one register and sustaining pedal (or none) in another. The
fragments are all very short, less than ten bars in each extract.
