 | Description: | Étude Op. 25, No. 10 features many unique aspects not present in most Chopin's études, including a significant and distinctive ternary form. The first theme is presented as a series of eighth note-tuplets in cut time, played at a very fast tempo of Allegro. The second theme is in B minor's parallel major, B major, and in triple metre. The second theme is repeated four times, and develops into a variation of the first theme, returning to cut time and B minor. Copious pedal point notes and phrase markings are present in the second theme, but the entire étude lacks any pedal indications. Similar to the Op. 10, No. 4 étude, Chopin emphasizes legato playing through the phrasing and (lack of) pedal marking. Throughout the entire work, Chopin marks only five dynamic markings; the entire first theme is to be played forte to fortissimo, and the whole second theme is piano.? 1990, © 1999. Made in Canada. Includes 8pp booklet with notes in English. Playing time 66:54.
Recorded on 21-22 March, 1990 at Tonstudio van Geest, Heidelberg, Germany. Originally released as [url=https://www.discogs.com/Chopin-Idil-Biret-Etudes-Op-10-And-Op-25/release/1128289]Naxos 8.550364[/url] in 1990.
