''Études'' is a one-act ballet choreographed by Danish dancer and choreographer Harald Lander to piano studies by Carl Czerny arranged for orchestra by Knudåge Riisager. It is considered Lander's most famous choreographic work and brought him international fame. The work premiered on 15 January 1948 at the Royal Theatre in Copenhagen with the Royal Danish Ballet, with scenery and costumes by Rolf Gerard and lighting by Nananne Porcher. ''Études'' is considered an homage to classical ballet training. It begins with traditional ballet exercises at the ''barre'' and ends with spectacular bravura displays.〔Matthew Naughtin, ''Ballet Music,'' 2014, p. 219〕 The original cast included: Margot Lander, Hans Brenaa, Svend Erik Jensen, Inge Sand and Inge Goth.
