Étude No. 4 (Villa-Lobos)

Heitor Villa-Lobos's Étude No. 4 ("de acordes repetidos"), part of his Twelve Études for Guitar, was first published by Max Eschig, Paris, in 1953.

Structure

The piece shows the influence of folk guitar music, is in G major, and is marked Un peu modéré (Santos 1985, 23).

Analysis

Étude No. 4 is a chord study, but does not employ all of the harmonic and polyphonic resources of the instrument (Santos 1985, 23).

gollark: (since that would actually be quite hard and cause ethical bees)
gollark: I thought it was quite obvious that I was joking about having secretly uploaded an infectious undetectable backdoor into the drone.
gollark: I thought you were doing drone delivery or something.
gollark: Isn't this a test drone which you presumably uploaded new code to lots?
gollark: I didn't take anything apart from, for a bit, the drone.
