What these scores are

The catalogue lists piano scores titled 'Rimsky-Korsakov Harmonic Exercises' under Practical Manual of Harmony. The three selected items are exercises 1–7, exercises 8–9, and exercise 29, each credited to S. Shchetnikov for the realization. Their titles identify separate exercise sets or numbers rather than a single titled concert piece.

Reading the opening details

Opening details differ between the listings: exercises 8–9 begin in 2/2, while exercises 1–7 and exercise 29 begin in 4/4. All three openings have no sharps or flats. The listed opening tempos are 160 BPM for exercises 8–9, 180 BPM for exercises 1–7, and 90 BPM for exercise 29; these describe the start of each score, not necessarily a fixed tempo throughout.

Using them for harmony study

These are numbered harmony exercises rather than concert repertoire, so they are suited to focused work on chords, progressions and part-writing. The catalogue does not state which topics each exercise covers, so check the score itself before assuming that a numbered exercise matches a particular chapter or concept in the manual.

Choosing a version

Only piano score parts are listed for these items. The catalogue does not identify a specific edition, an editor of the underlying manual, or a difficulty level; if you need a particular edition or a version with commentary, verify those details before choosing.
