F. Chopin Op. 10 Etudes “Milestone of the Piano Technic”
Arts and Design Studies www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-6061 (Paper) ISSN 2225-059X (Online) DOI: 10.7176/ADS Vol.71, 2019 F. Chopin Op. 10 Etudes “Milestone of the Piano Technic” Fahrettin Eren Yahşi State Conservatory, Department of Music, Anadolu University, PO box 26050, Eskisehir, Turkey Abstract F. Chopin has a significant place in piano music as well as the development of piano technique. Op. 10 Etudes which were first published in 1833 represented the first examples of musical technique apprehension which were desired to be done until that period. In this study, the development of early piano technique was presented through the examples from the composers who had studied in this field and the process up to Op. 10 Etudes was analyzed. In the last pat of the study, the innovations introduced by the Op. 10 Etudes and its milestone characteristics in the development of piano technique were mentioned. Keywords: Chopin, Op. 10 Etudes, Early Period Piano Technique, Technical Development, Analysis DOI : 10.7176/ADS/71-03 Publication date :March 31 st 2019 1. Introduction As it is known, pianists who want to maximize their techniques need to perform various exercises. These technical exercises have been formed by the studies which were foreseen by the composers to overcome existing technical problems; many of the composed etudes were added to the piano repertoire with this purpose. Therefore, etudes are essential parts of occupational lives of pianists as necessary works to gain technical proficiency. When technical development is considered as a whole that includes concepts like musicality, finger agility, virtuosity; there are etudes of different composers which have contributed to the development of all these concepts in today’s piano repertoire. -

In fact, most of these techniques were arguably developed for this kind of repertoire. Generally the original solo repertoire is idiomatic for the double bass. The same cannot be said for the orchestral repertoire, which presents many technical problems too difficult to solve using the traditional technique. -

Reviews 97 Lucie Manen. Bel canto; The Teaching of the Classical Italian Song- Schools, Its Decline and Restoration. New York: Oxford University Press, 1987. bibliography, 75p. Bel canto, it is generally agreed, is a lost art. But what, precisely, was bel canto? The word is used to describe the singing of the great castrati, and the repertory of classic Italian airs is known as bel canto music; the term conies up again to cover the operas of Rossini, Donizetti, and Bellini and the school of singers trained to sing them. But Philip A. Duey, in his study of the subject, states: "The term Bel Canto does not appear as such during the period with which it is most often associated, i.e., the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries; this may be said with finality." Lucie Manen as a singer was a casualty of World War II. -

Articulation from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
Articulation From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Examples of Articulations: staccato, staccatissimo,martellato, marcato, tenuto. In music, articulation refers to the musical performance technique that affects the transition or continuity on a single note, or between multiple notes or sounds. Types of articulations There are many types of articulation, each with a different effect on how the note is played. In music notation articulation marks include the slur, phrase mark, staccato, staccatissimo, accent, sforzando, rinforzando, and legato. A different symbol, placed above or below the note (depending on its position on the staff), represents each articulation. Tenuto Hold the note in question its full length (or longer, with slight rubato), or play the note slightly louder. Marcato Indicates a short note, long chord, or medium passage to be played louder or more forcefully than surrounding music. Staccato Signifies a note of shortened duration Legato Indicates musical notes are to be played or sung smoothly and connected. Martelato Hammered or strongly marked Compound articulations[edit] Occasionally, articulations can be combined to create stylistically or technically correct sounds. For example, when staccato marks are combined with a slur, the result is portato, also known as articulated legato. Tenuto markings under a slur are called (for bowed strings) hook bows. This name is also less commonly applied to staccato or martellato (martelé) markings. Apagados (from the Spanish verb apagar, "to mute") refers to notes that are played dampened or "muted," without sustain. The term is written above or below the notes with a dotted or dashed line drawn to the end of the group of notes that are to be played dampened.
