NotePublished for the first time by Éditions Max Eschig in 1953, with a preface by Andrés Segovia to whom the work was dedicated, the composing of the Douze Études by Heitor Villa-Lobos had actually commenced in Paris many years previously, probably in 1924, and finished in October 1928. This critical edition by Frederic Zigante has grown out of a painstaking study of all of the manuscript sources, enabling a new and precise reconstruction of the events surrounding the genesis of this collection. Finally, the volume presents certain variants that can be found in the Appendix (including the 1928 edition of Etude no.10) and a detailed critical commentary.
