About This Song
About "12 Etudes, Op. 10 : Chopin: 12 Etudes, Op. 10: No. 10 In A-Flat Major" by Daniele Pollini
The A-flat major Etude unfolds as a cascade of pearly runs, but Pollini finds the brooding heart within. The calm of its opening gives way to a restless, almost stormy middle, like a serene landscape suddenly crossed by a fast-moving shadow.
