Sheet Music: Performance PartsEther etude / Andrew Schultzby Andrew Schultz (2009)
|
Product details
It's called Etude (or study) because the piece is a study on triplet motion and also a study on a phrase of music by Beethoven; Piano Sonata No. 32 in C Minor, Op. 111 - the second movement, "Arietta", bars 89-102.
The Ether of the title suggests two things - the high floating gassy ether of the sky and the knockout gas; hence the high passage-work and the slightly wonky, unsteady character of the piece.
