25 Progressive Etudes, Op. 50

Louise Farrenc

Notes whose lengths are equal to one-eighth the value of a whole note or half the value of a quarter note.

Two notes played together, usually in one hand but sometimes in both, whose distance is the interval of a 3rd of any quality.

A type of accompaniment pattern that primarily uses major and minor triads with simple or slow-moving rhythms.

A type of texture where the contour of the notes in one hand is the exact opposite to that of the other hand as they play simultaneously.

Chords comprised of the root, major 3rd, perfect 5th, and minor 7th. Sometimes they are found in close position with only three notes.

A type of texture where one hand plays a series of notes that are mimicked in the other hand.

A type of articulation indicating the player to play short and light; notes not held for their full value.

Symbols indicating that two notes are to be played as one with the value equal to their sum.

A simple melody line shared by both the right hand and the left hand.
