About this arrangement

Henry Lemoine was a Paris music publisher and piano teacher. His Études enfantines, Op. 37, are 50 short studies dedicated to young pupils, and teachers still assign them today.

Use the printed 1-2-3-4 fingering in every group and keep the fingers close to the keys. The accidentals are what trip people up, so read each bar slowly before playing it at speed.

Start with short loops.

Use the section list as a practice map. Start at 50% tempo, loop one section, then return to the full piece once the hand shape feels stable.

Choose Right or Left to focus on one hand. Wait for note checks the highlighted notes as you play them on the screen or a connected MIDI keyboard.

Before you practice.

01 What level is Lemoine Op. 37 No. 4?

Late beginner. The figure is regular, but the sixteenth notes and the accidentals need a steady hand.

02 How long is it?

Our edition has 22 bars in 2/4.

03 What should I practise first?

The right hand in bars 1-4, slowly, with the fingering shown above the notes.
