For the most part the Calace preludes are very difficult. They are, however, worth the effort (unlike, in my opinion, much mandolin music of the same period).

I have a copy of the new edition on order. It looks excellent, from the sample on the website. There is another modern edition by Ugo Orlandi, but only of some of the preludes (it is available from www.trekel.de).
