🇷🇴Ligeti György Sándor ： Etudes Book II No.14 Columna infinita

This etude creates the illusion of an endlessly rising motion through repeated patterns and finely interwoven rhythms. The expanding register and placement of accents bring tension and a sense of direction to what may appear to be the same continuous movement. Rather than presenting clearly marked sections, it can be heard as a form in which the sonority and points of gravity shift within an uninterrupted flow. In performance, the rapid patterns should remain even while the contours of the individual voices stay clear, and the accents should not be forced into mechanical prominence. Pedaling should be used only as far as it preserves clarity, balancing the sustained sense of motion with a three-dimensional sonority.
