Etude no.6 - Op.10 no.6: Eb-minor

Recording by Richter

The melody of this etude conveys such longing. Almost seeming like a nocturne, the etude perhaps serves the purpose of dealing with a difficult-to-read key signature and a key change, as well as maintaining smooth, consistent sixteenth-notes (that don't overpower the melody or distract from it).
