Ivoire sous ébène
(Ivory beneath ebony)

Piano
(2009)
Duration : ~ 2’40
Publisher: Editions Billaudot

The reverse of the whimsical Ebène sur ivoire (see ‘Clavier d’avenir’), this playful etude unrolls an obsessive continuum of repeated notes to the point of dizziness, this time with the right hand (white keys) under the left hand (black keys).
