| Description |
|---|
| This study has a lot more shades than purple but the name is really just a name and is not fully descriptive of the piece. There are basically seven main colours in the rainbow as there are seven white notes on the piano keyboard so the musical palette has many 'colours' at its disposal. My 'rainbow' series of studies apart from helping me to pick up a little French language gives me a single shade starting point for inspiration (like a mood) but then I will always vere off course somewhat. The opening melody in A major is a little melancholy and makes me imagine lyrics like 'This lonely night' etc. There is then a short concerto style cameo followed by a more joyous version of the opening melody leading back to a repeat of the 1st subject. |
