This beautiful etude provides students with the opportunity to practice pentatonic runs on the black keys. It is also a great study of 5/4 time. In the A section, the right hand evokes images of waves rising, falling, and crashing on the shore, while the left hand provides a supportive ostinato. The B section presents a calmer rolling motion that one might experience while sailing. The meter, scale, ostinato, chord progressions, sections, and form are all based on the number five. Suggested fingering, dynamics, and pedal marks are provided in the score.
The score above is only a partial image. You can listen to the full piece by clicking on the video thumbnail above.
Please select either a single or studio license. The single license is for one copy for one person. The studio license is for unlimited copies for one teacher and their students (see terms).
