Chopin's Etude Op. 10 No. 1. The first of his Op. 10 set, and his first published Etude (written in 1829, meaning Chopin was only 19 years old, an incredible feat for a teenager). Dedicated to his close friend, Franz Liszt, who is said to have sightread these Etudes - at tempo - on first sitting. The piece is often given the nickname "Waterfall" due to the rapid RH arpeggios, though the main melody of the piece, contrasting to these arpeggios in a slow legato line, is taken by the LH. I hope you have an excellent Monday ♥
