Format : Sheet music Three Études for Piano by Nico Muhly. “In preparation for writing a large (uncompleted) work for piano I decided to write three short pieces to get certain musical tics out of my system. Each of these three études addresses a specific rhythmic and harmonic gesture: the first Ostinati focuses on a gently lilting left hand contrasted with angular outbursts in the right hand usually in octaves. The second étude “Quiet Music ” concerns itself with drones and chant-like music and the third “Running ” explores slowly shifting harmonies pitted against very fast cross-hand playing.” –Nico Muhly 2003 These three études were written from January to March 2003 and were composed partially for performance in the VisionIntoArt/RockHotelPianoFest in New York City. Étude #3 (“Running”) was premiered by Eric Huebner and is dedicated to him.
