Étude No. 12 (Villa-Lobos)

Heitor Villa-Lobos's Étude No. 12, the last of his Twelve Études for Guitar, was first published by Max Eschig, Paris, in 1953.

History

The autograph manuscript of Etude No. 12 is dated 1929, Paris (Villa-Lobos, sua obra 1989).

Structure

The piece is in A minor and is marked Animé (Santos 1985, 27).

Analysis

Étude No. 12 is a study in glissandos, boldly turning to musical use the normally unpleasant sounds produced when the player's finger slides over the guitar's strings. Like the preceding two studies (and unlike the earlier ones), it is in ternary (ABA) form, with a strongly contrasting middle section (marked più mosso) featuring drumming sounds produced on the fifth and sixth strings together (Santos 1985, 27–28).

gollark: The urlencoded MIME type/format doesn't mean it's sent in the URL, just that it uses similar encoding to query strings.
gollark: POST data isn't in the URL though, it's sent as the body.
gollark: The reason they *do* is probably just consistency with other methods (it would be very annoying if they worked very differently to GET routing-wise) and so requests can be routed to the right handler more easily.
