Bedrich Smetana composed one of these entitled Am Seegestade. John Cage composed some named after the Atlas Australis, and dedicated them to Grete Sultan, and composed several by the name Freeman. One collection of them includes pieces called "Rockets," "Wild Hunt," "Will o' the Wisp," and the final piece "Snow Squall." Other examples include a "Revolutionary" one by Chopin and the Mikrokosmos by Bartok. Maybe the most famous is the above collection by Franz Liszt, who did 12 "Transcendental" ones. FTP, give this term for a short musical piece designed to test technical skill, a word taken from the French for "study."
