Orledge observes that the right-hand figuration at the end of No 1 is remarkably similar to that at the end of Chopin's Waltz in E minor. Orledge writes that the second two valses-caprices are subtler and better integrated than the first two; they contain "more moments of quiet contemplation and more thematic development than before.
Philippe Dieterlen, No 4 to Mme. They were not published until , but they then became some of his most popular works. Copland considered them immature pieces, which "should be relegated to the indiscretions every young composer commits. The theme is presented first in the higher and then in the middle register, before flowing evenly to its conclusion.
The second romance, in A minor, an exuberant piece, has a strong semiquaver figure supporting the theme, and running high into the treble and low into the bass. After a lively display, the piece ends quietly. After gentle variation, it equally gently fades to silence at the end.
The third section is an andante introducing a third theme. In the last section, an allegro, a return of the second theme brings the work to a conclusion in which Nectoux comments, the treble sings with particular delicacy. The play of fleeting curves that is its essence can be compared to the movements of a beautiful woman without either suffering from the comparison. The Mazurka was composed in the mids but not published until The Pavane was conceived and originally written as an orchestral piece.
Certainly it is one of Faure's most approachable works. Even at first hearing it leaves an indelible impression. The "Theme" itself has the same fateful, march-like tread, the same atmosphere of tragedy and heroism, that we find in the introduction of Brahms's First Symphony. And the variety and spontaneity of the eleven variations which follow bring to mind nothing less than the Symphonic Etudes. How many pianists, I wonder, have not regretted that the composer disdained the easy triumph of closing on the brilliant, dashing tenth variation.
No, poor souls, they must turn the page and play that last, enigmatic and most beautiful one, which seems to leave the audience with so little desire to applaud. The piece, in G minor, contrasts a gravely noble andante moderato theme representing Penelope with a forthright theme for Ulysses. The polyphonic writing transfers effectively from the orchestral original to the piano. When he moved on to another publisher, Hamelle ignored his earlier instructions and issued subsequent editions with titles for each piece.
Dedicated to Madame Jean Leonard Koechlin. Koechlin calls this piece a pleasant feuillet d'album. Fugue in A minor: They are both, in Koechlin's view "in a pleasant and correct style, obviously less rich than those in the Well-Tempered Clavier, and more careful, but whose reserve conceals an incontestable mastery". Adagietto in E minor: An andante moderato , "serious, grave, at once firm and pliant, attaining real beauty" Koechlin. Orledge calls this piece a middle period "song without words". It would not be listed among them were it not for the publisher's unauthorised use of the title in this case.

The critic Alain Cochard writes that it "casts a spell on the ear through the subtlety of a harmony tinged with the modal and its melodic freshness. The mood is turbulent and anxious; [95] the piece ends in quiet resignation reminiscent of the "Libera me" of the Requiem. Copland wrote that it "can be placed side by side with the most wonderful of the Preludes of the Well-Tempered Clavichord.
This short, skittish piano work for four hands sends up themes from The Ring. It consists of five short sections in which Wagner's themes are transformed into dance rhythms. The Dolly Suite is a six-section work for piano duet. Its six movements take about fifteen minutes to perform.

These sets were composed during several decades in his long career, and display the change in his style from uncomplicated youthful charm to a final enigmatic, but sometimes fiery introspection, by way of a turbulent period in his middle years. The "Theme" itself has the same fateful, march-like tread, the same atmosphere of tragedy and heroism, that we find in the introduction of Brahms's First Symphony.
It is not always possible to give precise dates of composition for the early works. Some early editions of the score give the first of these the title "Barcarolle". I've got what sells.
