Paul Bazelaire (1886-1958) was a French pianist and cellist who trained at the Paris Conservatoire. He was an experienced teacher and authored several publications. Bazelaire's Études transcendentales were virtuosic adaptations of Kummer's mid-nineteenth-century studies and reflected the advancements in cello technique during his time. Throughout his career, he composed over a hundred pieces, including some for solo piano.

Dotzauer was a skilled musician who composed operas, symphonies, overtures, mass, concertos, and chamber music. However, his educational compositions have proved to be of lasting value. At the end of the 19th century, there was an idea to compile and publish a selection of his educational life work that met the demands of the time. Several publications of this kind were made, but the work by Johannes Klingenberg has turned out to be the most successful.
