🇵🇱Karol Maciej Szymanowski ： 12 Etudes Op.33-1

No. 1 from Szymanowski’s 12 Etudes, Op. 33 is a short piece in which technical challenges are closely linked to an interest in richly colored sonorities. Fine motion and changing accents propel the music forward, while tension and release alternate within brief units. It is important to keep the notes even without allowing the playing to become mechanical; dynamics and pedaling should be adjusted with careful attention to the gradations of sound. Bring out the movement of each voice clearly, maintain the continuity of the musical flow, and savor the sharpness and brilliance that emerge along the way.
