[Chopin] Etude Op.25 No.6 g sharp minor
쇼팽 에뛰드
Valentina Lisitsa
No.6 treats the technical problem of executing rapid right-hand thirds not for brilliant display but, rather, for poetic melodiousness (there being no tangible melody). Louis Ehlert recognized Chopin's achievement thus: "He deprives every passage of all mechanical appearance by promoting it to become the embodiment of a beautiful thought, which in turn finds graceful expression in its motion." This is one of the greatest of Chopin's alchemical transmutations of the etude-idea for, in it, the lead of mere physical prowess has become pure musical gold.
