Etude #1
A recording from a few years ago. Poor quality video but I am happy with it anyway.

Good job with that, nice tone and well played!
I'm curious though: You changed the music towards the end i.e. the part where you repeat the Em and C-E-A# chords rather than alternate them as the music is written, and traditionally played. Any reason for that?

Not sure why. Could be that the music I used had it that way. I used Parkening as inspiration for the expression. I have noticed lots of liberties taken on this piece maybe he played it that way. Got to find my Parkening CD and check it out.
My past teacher pointed that out also and I changed it several years ago. Thanks.

Well done! And a great etude for the right hand! And the bird singing at the end was a nice touch!

Quote:
Interestingly however, Villa-Lobos’s original manuscript from 1928 was unearthed several years ago, and contains numerous areas where his original score differs from the Eschig editions, even showing different melody and harmony notes. Etude 1 for example: His original score showed no repeats at all! and thus the study was very short, as written. Also some minor changes in the very last chords with regards to harmonics. Based on what I’ve read though, Villa-Lobos himself did not disagree with the many changes that came to be the Eschig edition versions, and may have even changed them himself. Another thing I liked about your version was the tempo. It really doesn’t need to be any faster than that, but many players like to push that one, seemingly because they can, at the expense of expression imo. It doesn’t add much to the music when played too fast. It even loses some of its melodic charm, in spite of the player’s ability to play cleanly. (Villa-Lobos himself scored it as "Fast, but not too fast", which sums it up nicely). My favorite recording is that of Manuel Barrueco. One of the best around.

Thanks for the detailed info Andre. I prefer the repeated descending chords and I need to check out your performer reference.
