🇺🇸William L. Gillock ： Accent On 1 Black Key Etude in Fis-Dur

Making effective use of writing centered on the black keys, this etude for students moves forward through the repetition and exchange of short motifs. Accents emerge within its lively motion, making the clarity of each note and the rhythmic momentum central points of interest. The music maintains a continuous flow while shifting its expression through changes in register and dynamics. In performance, it is important to keep the hand position stable over the black keys and to play lightly without stiffening the fingertips. Accents should be clearly articulated without forcing them or disturbing the beat, while giving the repeated motifs a subtle sense of direction helps produce a vivid and well-defined performance.
