- F. Chopin: Etude in C Major,
Op. 10, no. 1 - mm. 1-2
This
audio file demonstrates how
a strong emphasis of the thumb
would cause a displacement
of the metric pulse on the
second sixteenth-note of each
group in this measure and in
measures that bear the same
or similar fingering throughout
the Etude. These accents do
not serve as dynamic emphases,
but rather outline a metric
order that differs from the
organization that the thumb
may dictate if used as a customary
point of reference on each
ascending gesture. |
