An Italian Rant!

Sonata for violin, Op 4, No 10

Only very few piano works have become as popular as this theme with twelve variations. It already caught on soon after Mozart’s death, as witnessed by the numerous handwritten copies and prints. Although nothing is known with any certainty regarding its genesis, we can now conclusively date “Ah, vous dirai-je Maman” to 1781. At that time Mozart wanted to make his way as a prominent piano teacher in Vienna. His variations still prove to be excellent teaching material.

Tchaikovsky - The Nutcracker Suite - Act I, No.9. The Christmas Tree

Opposite to the Revolutionary etude in the previous track, this etude features the fast running passages in the right hand, and powerful chords in the left hand. The motion of the running passages is constantly changing from upwards to downwards, creating a wind whirling effect. This etude is popularly known as the Winter Wind etude, and it uses a big range, spanning the entire keyboard. It is considered one of Chopin's most challenging etudes. By the way, don't be fooled by the beginning, as a few "pianissimo" chords represent the quiet before the storm.
