As in that work, we have here a rhythmically uniform arpeggio measuring a wide-span progression through the tonal space. Filtered with a reciprocal mp3-filter (VBR 190) by Hannes Seidl.Д«oth the title and many gestural details clearly show what Chopin was studying at that time the piece is unmistakably reminiscent of Johann Sebastian BachвЂ™s C Major Prelude from the Well-Tempered Clavier, Vol. 1 in C Major, recorded specially for this occasion by the Italian pianist Marco Scilironi.ДЇrГ©dГ©ric Chopin. 28 by FrГ©dГ©ric Chopin will serve as one example I will later move on to a piano LP by the Swiss artist Dieter Roth and will end with an orchestral work by the young German composer Hannes Seidl. I would like to stay with piano music for a while, where the rapid fading away of tone is normal, and a central component for the regulation of this process, the damper, is called il smorzatore in Italian. Instead, my article focuses on the phenomenon of the ephemeral in music in general. One could now list countless examples of music containing smorzando or related expressions, such as morendo or calando. There, smorzando immediately follows the expression smorfioso (grotesque) вЂ“ IвЂ™ve never come across that in any score вЂ“ and means weakening, extinguishing, dying, an utmost diminuendo with simultaneous ritardando. Now, the process of resolving and sublimation seems entirely appropriate to all kinds of sound experience, and ChopinвЂ™s music in particular is undoubtedly sublime, but prioritizing a biting stinging in oneвЂ™s nose is certainly inappropriate.Д¬onsulting a dictionary actually reveals the completely opposite meaning: smorzando comes from the Italian smorzare, which means nothing less than to extinguish a fire, smorzare il fuoco, but also to temper a too-spicy tomato sauce ( smorzare il piccante).Д«ut, as is well known, the Italian used in music is an artificial language, and consulting a music dictionary gives another meaning. This can indicate a slight smell of burning in the air as well as the combustion process itself. To this day, I cannot help but associate smorz with what I spontaneously associated it with during that time: schmГјrzele, a similar-sounding word in Swiss German. And then, just before the end of the piece, he puzzled me with: smorz, short for smorzando, as my piano teacher knew. Once he asked for con forza as a young man at the piano, I didnвЂ™t need to be told twice. At the very beginning, the composer encouraged me with a dolce espressivo, later intensified to dolcissimo. At some point in my adolescence, I finally managed to play the famous Nocturne in E-flat major, Op.
