9. Traumerei.
10. March Wind.
11. Impromptu.
12. Polonaise.
These studies, while indicated by the composer as requiring advanced technique for performance, are full of poetical thought and tonal beauty that make them worthy of study. Many of them possess that Nature tone painting, that mystic, subtle romanticism of whispering tree-tops and elfin glades, that freshness and open air spirit which distinguish MacDowell's later short pieces.
Novelette is an attractive study and full of the composer's own individual spirit. It is considered to be one of the best of the set.
Moto Perpetuo is cleverly written and musical.
Wild Chase is one of those exhilarating, imaginative pieces so characteristic of MacDowell. It is full of outdoor poetry and suggestive of a wild and glorious ride over the great American prairies, or of a dream gallop full of breathless fancy.
Improvisation exhibits the composer's finer poetry and mastery of his art.
Elfin Dance is suggestive and imaginative.
