Description
Frédéric Chopin - Etude Op. 25 No. 6 in G# minor "Thirds"
Pairs of notes shimmer in the right hand, their chromatic motion giving the music an unsettled glow. Listen below them and the left hand reveals a line that gives the swirling texture its shape.
The reward is hearing the two layers take on different characters under your fingers. Keep the thirds supple and give the lower line enough colour to carry the phrase, and the étude gains a depth that makes its virtuosity worth exploring.
Have a happy performance!
