A Guide to the Trinity College Piano Syllabus (2021 - 2023)


Fibich - Lento (Moods, Impressions and Souvenirs, Op.41 No.139)

The tempo is slow, and the mood sombre and brooding in this gorgeous character piece by the unjustly neglected Czech composer, Fibich. Bring as wide a tonal palette as you can muster to this piece, to create contrasting orchestral textures. The player will need to carefully consider the pedalling and accommodate the spread chords so as to catch the basses in the pedal while keeping continuity in the line.
