Zabel – Concert Etude No. 2
$15.00

Difficulty (6/7)
Albert Zabel is famous for his Am Springbrunnen, better known as La Source, which was hailed as the most performed harp piece ever. Yet he composed many other attention-worthy pieces, all in a mid-century German romantic style.
In his Etude No. 2, which could be called a “song without words”, a simple cross-fingering pattern creates a magic intertwining of melody and accompaniment, as the tune is delineated by the thumb gliding seamlessly over its own undercurrent.
